After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets fended off the Knicks 120-111. Nets' offense had its way with the Knicks. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
