After Action Report
The Nets blew the doors off the Cavaliers 118-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Nets lately; Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
