After Action Report
In a track meet, the Nets snuck past the Rockets 100-96. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nets. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Nets. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
