After Action Report

The Nets squeaked past the Raptors 117-112. Nets' offense had its way with the Raptors. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Raptors bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
