After Action Report
The Nets outlasted the Hawks 108-92. Nets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Nets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
