After Action Report
The Celtics demolished the Nets 128-103. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Celtics stayed locked in; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
