After Action Report
The Nets blew the doors off the Kings 106-85. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
