After Action Report
The Celtics downed the Nets 108-89. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
