After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics blew the doors off the Nets 124-100. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Celtics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
