After Action Report

The Nets shocked the Kings 118-107. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
