After Action Report
The Celtics upended the Nets 121-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Nets. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Nets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nets · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
