After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks buried the Heat 130-109. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it

- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
