After Action Report

The Nets handled the Rockets 103-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Nets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

  • Nets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
