After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Nets squeaked past the Knicks 106-104 in overtime. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

  • Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
