After Action Report

The Nets demolished the Rockets 134-102. Nets' offense had its way with the Rockets. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
