After Action Report

The Nets pulled away from the Lakers 122-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Nets; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
