After Action Report
In a track meet, the Mavericks buried the Timberwolves 126-84. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Timberwolves utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
