After Action Report
The Mavericks blew the doors off the Lakers 122-99. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
