After Action Report

In a track meet, the Nets snuck past the Raptors 134-131. Nets' offense had its way with the Raptors. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
