The Celtics took care of the Nets 125-113. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Celtics. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
