After Action Report
The Nets rolled past the Celtics 139-108. Nets' offense had its way with the Celtics. The Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
