After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets demolished the Suns 116-88. Nets torched the Suns on the offensive end. Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Suns' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
