After Action Report
The Celtics demolished the Nets 130-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
