After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Nets blew the doors off the Hornets 127-100. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Nets steamroller is in full effect right now. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
