After Action Report
The Nets ran roughshod over the Magic 107-86. Nets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Magic couldn't shake the cold spell; Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
