After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks ran roughshod over the Bucks 125-69. Mavericks' scorers couldn't be contained. The Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Bucks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bucks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Bucks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.

- Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
