After Action Report

The Nets demolished the Raptors 118-87. The Raptors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; second-chance points piled up for the Raptors. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
