After Action Report

The Nets ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 128-102. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
