After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics fended off the Nets 109-102. Celtics' defense smothered the Nets all night. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
