After Action Report

The Nets survived the Kings 116-113. Nets torched the Kings on the offensive end. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
