After Action Report
In Dallas, the Nets outlasted the Mavericks 104-98. The Nets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Nets. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
