After Action Report

The Bucks survived the Nets 118-115. Bucks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Bucks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
