After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Celtics rolled past the Nets 125-101. The tempo dragged the Nets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Nets came in with something to prove after a loss. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
