After Action Report
The Nets snuck past the Cavaliers 98-97. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
