After Action Report
The Nets outlasted the Pistons 105-91. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nets. The Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
