After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks demolished the Nuggets 145-101. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; the Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
