After Action Report
The Nets snuck past the Celtics 110-105. Nets' scorers couldn't be contained. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
