After Action Report

In Dallas, the Mavericks demolished the Pacers 111-77. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; the Mavericks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
