After Action Report
The Suns ran roughshod over the Nets 119-96. Suns torched the Nets on the offensive end. Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Nets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
