After Action Report
The Nets snuck past the Trail Blazers 105-104. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Nets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
