After Action Report

The Nets handled the SuperSonics 99-87. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. The Nets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
