After Action Report

The Celtics buried the Nets 123-97. Celtics' offense had its way with the Nets. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
