After Action Report
The Nets squeaked past the Lakers 88-85. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
