BROOKLYN NETS
Grade: B
The Nets were able to overcome subpar 2nd and 3rd quarters to defeat the crosstown rival Knicks in the home opener. On a night where the Nets had an unprecedented negative nineteen (!) turnover differential (22 to 3), Caris LeVert’s heroics willed the team to victory. Coming into the game, rebounding was main focus for the Nets and they did well in that department, outrebounding the Knicks 55-36. Enes Kanter still dominated with 29 points and 10 rebounds, but the Nets did a good job to limit the other Knicks on the glass.
