After Action Report

The Nets outlasted the Bucks 111-97. Every possession went the Nets way. Second-chance points piled up for the Nets; the Nets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bucks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
