After Action Report
The Nets handled the Celtics 109-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Celtics owned the glass, generating extra possessions.
What tipped it
- Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
