After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Nets 116-104. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. The Nets couldn't shake the cold spell; Nets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Nets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
