After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Nets 149-127. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
