After Action Report

In Toronto, the Nets survived the Raptors 132-130 in overtime. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 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.
