After Action Report
The Nets rolled past the Spurs 117-97. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
