After Action Report

The Nets held off the Pistons 108-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Nets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
