After Action Report

In a track meet, the Nets handled the Magic 138-128. The breakneck pace played right into Nets' hands. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
