After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets blew the doors off the Cavaliers 118-87. Every possession went the Nets way. The Nets steamroller is in full effect right now; the Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
