After Action Report
The Nets held off the Cavaliers 101-92. Nets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
