After Action Report
The Nets outlasted the Pistons 116-109. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Nets couldn't shake the cold spell; Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks.
What tipped it
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
