After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets squeaked past the Pistons 98-96. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. The Nets couldn't shake the cold spell; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
