After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Clippers took care of the Nets 103-89. The Nets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Clippers. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; shots just aren't falling for the Nets lately. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Nets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

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.
  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
