After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets upended the Kings 125-122. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Kings' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
