After Action Report
The Nets outlasted the Cavaliers 117-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. The Nets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Nets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
