After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Nets handled the Knicks 109-95. Nets torched the Knicks on the offensive end. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
