After Action Report

In a track meet, the Mavericks survived the Grizzlies 112-110. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
