After Action Report
The Nets snuck past the Celtics 100-98. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nets. Second-chance points piled up for the Nets; the Nets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
