After Action Report

The Celtics demolished the Nets 126-99. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
