After Action Report

The Nets knocked off the Wizards 117-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
