After Action Report
The Nets downed the Magic 106-96. Nets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Magic utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
