After Action Report
The Nets outlasted the Pacers 113-104. The Pacers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nets. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
