After Action Report
The Nets pulled away from the Magic 121-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Magic owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
