After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Nets snuck past the Kings 110-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Nets steamroller is in full effect right now; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
