After Action Report
The Nets snuck past the Lakers 108-103. Nets' offense had its way with the Lakers. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; Nets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
