After Action Report

The Kings buried the Nets 115-88. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Kings; shots just aren't falling for the Nets lately. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
