After Action Report

The Nets shocked the Wizards 125-99. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
