After Action Report
The Nets snuck past the Celtics 111-109. Nets torched the Celtics on the offensive end. Fresh off a statement win, the Nets stayed locked in; Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
