After Action Report

The Nets ran roughshod over the Suns 120-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets came in with something to prove after a loss. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
