After Action Report
The Celtics fended off the Nets 118-111. The tempo dragged the Nets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
