After Action Report

The Nets ran roughshod over the Celtics 115-90. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
