After Action Report

The Celtics upended the Nets 119-113. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. An upset for the books.
