After Action Report

The Nets demolished the Pacers 138-117. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
