After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Nets 119-99. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
