After Action Report

The Nets outlasted the Kings 112-104. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
