After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets knocked off the Heat 108-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. The Nets couldn't shake the cold spell; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
