After Action Report
In Boston, the Nets held off the Celtics 113-106. Every possession went the Nets way. The Nets steamroller is in full effect right now; Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
