After Action Report
In Boston, the Nets held off the Celtics 101-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Nets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
