After Action Report
The Nets demolished the Spurs 130-104. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
