After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Nets squeaked past the 76ers 112-111. Nets' scorers couldn't be contained. 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. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
