After Action Report
In New York, the Nets blew the doors off the Knicks 135-84. Nets' offense had its way with the Knicks. Second-chance points piled up for the Nets; Nets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it

- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · 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.
