After Action Report

In New York, the Nets outlasted the Knicks 122-106. Nets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Nets. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
