After Action Report
The Nets held off the Cavaliers 105-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
