After Action Report
The Nets shocked the 76ers 98-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep; the 76ers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 76ers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
