After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Nets pulled away from the Celtics 118-108. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets came in with something to prove after a loss; Nets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
