After Action Report

In Boston, the Celtics took care of the Nets 115-100. Every possession went the Celtics way. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
