After Action Report

The Mavericks took care of the Bulls 118-107. The Bulls had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss; Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
