After Action Report
The Nets outlasted the Rockets 105-99. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
