After Action Report
The Nets rolled past the Rockets 110-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Fresh off a statement win, the Nets stayed locked in; Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
