After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Nets 127-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Celtics. 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.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
