After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Celtics took care of the Nets 122-108. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
