After Action Report
The Nets demolished the Hornets 128-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
