After Action Report

The Nets survived the Spurs 105-104 in overtime. Nets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
