After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Nets survived the Knicks 107-105. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
