After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Nets 132-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
