After Action Report

The Nets outlasted the Bulls 111-105 in overtime. Ugly basketball, but the Nets did just enough. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
