After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets survived the Knicks 100-96. The Nets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
