After Action Report
The Mavericks rolled past the Heat 139-90. The Heat had no answer for the variance gods tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Mavericks; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.

- Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
