@Alex__Schiffer
Story from last night is up. Like in April, the Nets were able to hang with the Celtics for most of the game, but unable to beat Boston, snapping a four-game win streak. On the tier the Celtics are in and the one the Nets are in a quarter into the season: theathletic.com/3970082/2022/1… – 9:30 AM

@hoopshype
Jayson Tatum: “I’m just glad we won. Nine turnovers? That’s ridiculous. And some of them, I was just throwing that s*** out of bounds. The ball was kind of slippery. The one I thew to Al to the corner and he shot it.. that s*** went to the air. But I mean there’s no excuse.” pic.twitter.com/Plgv6nmaCC – 9:30 AM

@RealBobManning
Tatum praised Durant’s friendship after the #Celtics beat the #Nets again.
I spoke with Durant, who said the C’s have put the perfect team around Tatum: “He’s always been a mature player, I just think that now you’re putting the pieces around him.”

The Celtics offense didn’t flow like it normally does. An improving defense made sure that didn’t matter.
My story: theathletic.com/3969662/2022/1… – 11:22 PM

@SeanGrandePBP
The 9 turnovers for Jayson Tatum were the most by a Celtic since Rajon Rondo had 9 at Detroit 10 years ago next month (Jan. 10, 2013).
The last time a Celtis opponent had more turnovers than Kevin Durant’s 8 on Sunday? Jamal Murray of Denver had 9 in Boston Feb 26, 2021. – 10:50 PM

@erikslater_
Royce O’Neale’s hesitancy from three really stood out in tonight’s loss.

Blake Griffin knew the Nets weren’t going to re-sign him because he wasn’t in the rotation at the end of the season.
But he also wasn’t sure if another team would sign him.

Kyrie when asked about Boston’s defense tonight:
“It’s the same difference principles from what I see. They sell out on our drives and make us pass. So, crowding the paint.” – 8:48 PM

@Pistons_PR
Saddiq Bey scored 24 points off the bench tonight against the Grizzlies with six rebounds and seven assists, the first time in his career reaching such minimums in a game.
Tonight was his third career game with 20+ points off the bench and his first since 2/12/21 at BOS. – 8:48 PM

This is just the third 50-point game by a LeBron James teammate in a game that LeBron plays in.
Anthony Davis has two of them, the first coming in 2019 vs Minnesota.
Kyrie had one in 2015 vs the Spurs, a ridiculous game in which he buried a 3 at the buzzer to force OT. – 8:37 PM

@erikslater_
Jacque Vaughn on Boston’s doubles of KD in the fourth:
“We’re getting that swing, swing action off of it and when the ball makes its way there you gotta shoot that thing.”
Nets we’re 9/26 from three and noticeable hesitant in the 2nd half. – 8:36 PM

@Krisplashed
Jacque Vaughn says there isn’t yet an update on Ben Simmons, who is set to be reevaluated after today’s game. His status has not yet been determined for Wednesday against Charlotte – 8:34 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Jacque Vaughn said he doesn’t have much of an update on Ben Simmons. He will come in for treatment tomorrow, but hasn’t heard anything new from the training staff. Seems like Tuesday’s practice will have more clarity. – 8:34 PM

The Nets got 8 non-garbage time points from their bench tonight.
4 from T.J. Warren, 4 from Cam Thomas (who was benched in the 2nd half). Seth Curry goes scoreless.
Add Royce O’Neale’s struggles and there simply wasn’t enough offense out there tonight. – 8:24 PM

It’s been established at this point, but that Celtics team is scary good. Even more apparent in person.
Really tough matchup for Brooklyn going forward. – 8:20 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
#Celtics beat #Nets 103-92, led entire second half. Brown 34, Tatum 29, 10 reb, 9 TOs, Brogdon 13; Durant 31, Irving 18, Harris 13.
BRK: 40% FG, 34.6 on 3pt. – 8:19 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Final: Celtics beat the Nets 103-92 to snap BK’s four-game winning streak. KD had 31, Joe Harris continues to look better, but an ugly night on both sides of the ball. Hornets come to town Wednesday, followed by ATL on Fri. Both winnable. Is Ben Simmons back by then? – 8:18 PM

@NickFriedell
The Celtics offered the Nets a reminder of the large gap between where the team is now — and where they want to be. The same reminder that was delivered throughout the 1st round series in April. – 8:14 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Arguably the worst offensive night for Boston this season and the Celtics are up 16 with 1:43 to play. – 8:14 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
A Tatum pull-up 3 and it’s good night #Nets. After a really slow start, Tatum has 29 pts and 11 rebs but also a ghastly nine turnovers. BOS 101, BRK 85. #Celtics – 8:14 PM

@erikslater_
Celtics have blown it open with 1:43 remaining. They lead by 16.
Nets have 35 points in the 2nd half. – 8:14 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
The Celtics are going to hold an opponent under 100 points for just the second time this season. – 8:14 PM



@erikslater_
Royce O’Neale cannot stick with Jaylen Brown offensively.
Fouls Jaylen Brown on a three with 2:47 remaining. Celtics can push the lead to 10.
That’ll do it here. – 8:11 PM

@RealBobManning
Eight Tatum turnovers and seven for Durant. These teams have tormented each other. Much better suited to guard each other than last year if they end up playing in the postseason again. – 8:10 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Joe Mazzulla and Jacque Vaughn have played this like a playoff game. Just an 8-man rotation for each team tonight. (Kornet played less than 1 minute for the Celtics.)
Lots of guys in the 35-40 minute range. – 8:10 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Kevin Durant has 31 points, but the Celtics have forced five turnovers from him off double-teams (seven turnovers for KD overall).
Durant is going to get his points. Key is to make him work for them, while keeping the other guys in check. Celtics have done that so far. – 8:07 PM


@BrianTRobb
Celtics are up to 10 steals tonight, their second-highest total of the season. – 8:07 PM

@erikslater_
Nets haven’t had much offensive strategy outside of “work it into KD with 12 seconds left on the shot clock.”
He has a bunch of turnovers but I would expect so trying to navigate this Boston defense with little help. – 8:06 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
In a game where the Nets smaller guards have struggled, Vaughn goes super small. Durant out there with Harris, O’Neale, Curry and Irving. Down seven with 2:57 left. – 8:05 PM

@RealBobManning
This is the best defensive effort all season from the #Celtics – 8:05 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
Hate that possession. Tatum held it for 20 seconds and took a deep three. No one else got a touch. That’s the crap the Celtics used to do when they were struggling to find anything good. Keep hitting the paint and moving the ball. – 8:04 PM

@erikslater_
A Kevin Durant and-one cuts it to 5 with 3:33 remaining.
KD has 31 points on 13/24 shooting. – 8:03 PM

@NickFriedell
Royce O’Neale with a rough night offensively. He’s just 2-for-11 from the field — and he’s about to hit the 40 minute mark. Vaughn is riding his starters a lot tonight. Off the bench — Warren has played 18 minutes, Curry has played 12, Thomas has played 7. That’s it. – 8:02 PM


@erikslater_
Celtics intentionally send Nic Claxton to the line while up 9 with 4:02 remaining. – 8:02 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
Nets are weird, man. They had KD and Kyrie. They are down double digits and need a bucket. They run a set for Harris to take a tough movement three with neither star really involved.
Just kind of an odd time for that set. Harris is good, but give it to your main guys. – 8:02 PM

@erikslater_
Aside from Game 1 of last year’s sweep, Boston has been a really tough matchup for Kyrie. – 8:01 PM

@erikslater_
Boston’s defense is completely overwhelming Brooklyn. Kyrie can’t get his shot off comfortably and Royce O’Neale looks lost out there.
Really tough game for those two. – 8:00 PM


@erikslater_
Boston’s defense is completely overwhelming Brooklyn’s offense. Kyrie can’t get his shot off comfortably and Royce O’Neale looks lost out there.
Really tough game for those two. – 7:59 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
#Nets rely way too heavily on Kevin Durant. He’s trying to do everything out there and he’s already played 36 minutes. #Celtics – 7:59 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
There must be a TON of Celtics fans in the house tonight, because it’s starting to sound like a Boston home game. – 7:58 PM

@erikslater_
Kyrie gives up on a switch and leaves Jayson Tatum wide open for a dunk on the roll. Then commits an offensive foul and picks up a tech.
Celtics lead up to 9 with possession.
That may be the game. – 7:58 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
White and Tatum work that slip screen at least once per game for a bucket. – 7:58 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
Kyrie has shot like crap, but he makes a big hoop there to steady the Nets. – 7:57 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Nets have had some terrible, terrible passes today that went right to the Celtics. Zach Wilson would be impressed. – 7:56 PM

@briancmahoney
Big ovation in Brooklyn for Roger Federer, sitting by the Boston bench. – 7:55 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
The Celtics are doing just enough offensively to complement one of their best defensive efforts of the season so far. – 7:55 PM

@SeanGrandePBP
The Celtics entered Friday as the #1 shooting team in the NBA, they’re 7-for-27 (26%) in the second half…
…yet, lead 83-76 with 6:45 to play. – 7:55 PM

@erikslater_
Boston’s doubles of KD in the post and rotations off it are outstanding. – 7:54 PM

@RealBobManning
Al Horford, who probably won’t play tomorrow, pouring all he has into this one. Three blocks, none bigger than that last one to push the #Celtics ahead by 7. – 7:54 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
#Celtics scoring just enough to keep the #Nets off of them. They have 21 second-half points in 17 minutes, 15 seconds but still lead by 7 with 6:45 left.
Brown 28; Durant 28. – 7:54 PM

@erikslater_
Nets cut it to 2.
Seth Curry gets beat off the dribble ➡️ Horford 3
KD turnover ➡️ Jaylen Brown dunk
Back to 7. Story of the game. Whenever Brooklyn gets close they give it back. – 7:53 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
The Celtics best offense in the second half has been Brogdon drive-and-kick to the opposite corner. They’ve gotten threes from Grant, Hauser and Horford out of those actions. – 7:53 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Nets cut it to two and a pair of bad possessions has the Celtics’ lead back to seven. Jaylen Brown with a thunderous dunk leading Jacque Vaughn to call timeout. It’s 83-76 with 6:45 left. – 7:53 PM

@RealBobManning
This is the loudest I’ve ever heard #Celtics fans at Barclays. The building erupted on that Brown breakout dunk. – 7:53 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Joe Harris with the putback and it’s 78-76 Celtics with 7:20 left. – 7:52 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Boston’s defensive rotations after double Durant has been on point.
Right on cue, they don’t double and Durant walks into a pullup triple. – 7:52 PM

@RealBobManning
#Celtics have made things tough on Durant, but he still has 28 and pulled the #Nets within 2 on a pull-up 3 and back door feed to Harris. – 7:52 PM

@erikslater_
Boston’s doubles of KD and rotations off KD in the post are outstanding. – 7:52 PM


@RealBobManning
Looks like Grant-Pritchard pre-switched that set for Kyrie while the ref took a long time to put the in-bounds in play. Pritchard guarded Claxton and Grant Curry, before Brown eventually ended up on Irving for the stop – 7:49 PM

@NickFriedell
Kyrie is now 5-for-19 from the field. He can’t find any rhythm at all offensively. He’s forced up a few bad looks as well. – 7:49 PM



@KeithSmithNBA
Jaylen Brown has set a new career-high with four blocks tonight. – 7:49 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Boston did a good job keeping Claxton off the boards in the first half, but he’s been all over the offensive glass in the second half. – 7:46 PM

@RealBobManning
#Celtics 4/19 FG in the second half after 3 misses to start the 4th. – 7:46 PM

@erikslater_
Nets need to get T.J. Warren some touches.
Kyrie is tired. They need someone else to create. – 7:46 PM

@WorldWideWob
dont know if it was part of the scout or not but Boston is waiting until KD puts the ball on the floor to send the double-team. he’s still shooting well but it’s doing a pretty damn good job at getting the ball out of his hands in 1-on-1 situations. only 69 BKN points through 3. – 7:46 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Only 12 assists against 14 turnovers for the Celtics tonight.
Just terrible ball movement all game long. – 7:45 PM

@erikslater_
The Nets held Boston to 13 points in the 3rd quarter.
That matches the fewest points Brooklyn has surrendered in any quarter this season (13 points in the third quarter on 11/4 at Washington). – 7:44 PM

@SeanGrandePBP
The Celtics who lead the NBA in scoring, at over 30 points per quarter, just scored 13 points on 4-17 shooting in the 3rd at Brooklyn…
…yet they take a 75-69 lead into the 4th. – 7:44 PM

@RealBobManning
#Celtics up 75-69 into the 4th. They took the lead midway through the 1st and haven’t trailed since. They’ve done that a handful of times this year all the way to the end. Would be pretty impressive to pull it off against Durant and Irving the way they’ve been playing. – 7:44 PM

@BrooklynNets
12 points in the third for @Kevin Durant 🔥 pic.twitter.com/895Jd7ashW – 7:44 PM



@erikslater_
End Q3: Celtics 75, Nets 69
Brooklyn held Boston to 13 points but muster just 19 of their own. Kevin Durant should get some rest here to start the 4th.
Nets reserves going to have to step up to keep this one close. – 7:43 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
End of the third quarter: Nets trail the Celtics 75-69. Nets are right there to pull it out, but two possessions feels like a lot in this game. BK needs more from the bench and a few more 3s. – 7:43 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
For anyone who thinks Marcus Smart isn’t doing a great job running the Celtics offense, I present this third quarter as evidence that Smart is doing a great job running the Celtics offense. – 7:39 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
The Celtics have fallen into playing 1-on-1 too much. There is no ball and player movement right now. That’s allowing the Nets to load to the ball and shutdown these drives. – 7:37 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Celtics call timeout. They lead 69-65 with 2:13 left in the third quarter. One of those games where whenever the Nets get close, the Celtics respond and put it out of reach a little more. Lather, rinse, repeat. – 7:36 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Celtics are 2-for-12 shooting with 8 turnovers in the third quarter and they still have the lead somehow. – 7:35 PM

I’d say the Celtics and Nets are trading baskets, but it’s like one basket every two minutes for each team.
This is not a highlight quarter of basketball being played in Brooklyn right now. – 7:32 PM

@AdamHimmelsbach
Celtics had just 4 points over the first 7+ minutes of the third but the Nets haven’t done anything with it. – 7:31 PM

@RealBobManning
Six possession scoring drought for the #Celtics. Comes to an end one play later on a long Horford outlet to Tatum for 2. – 7:31 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
4 points, 4 turnovers for the Celtics in first 6 minutes of Q3. – 7:29 PM

@RealBobManning
Nic Claxton off on his first two free throws tonight.
Of course, the last time these teams met in G4 last spring he shot 1/11 at the line, providing the #Celtics a huge break on their way to the sweep – 7:28 PM





@RealBobManning
Love that move by Brown picking up his dribble to shake Irving and draw the foul on Claxton behind him. – 7:22 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
8-0 Nets run to open the second half against some sloppy Celtics basketball. – 7:21 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
Celtics must have taken a nap at halftime. Sleep start to the third quarter here. – 7:19 PM

@erikslater_
This game is a good indication of where undersized guards stand against Boston.
Cam, Patty, Seth cannot match up with Celtics’ length, physicality, and 3-pt shooting.
With the road in the East going through Boston, those players should be used in some package for a bigger body. – 7:16 PM

@NYPost_Lewis
The #Nets had played an exceptionally clean first half against a Boston defense getting back to their old stifling ways. But in the 14-2 four-minute #Celtics run to end the half, Brooklyn shot 1-of-5 and committed three of their five turnovers. – 7:15 PM

@NickFriedell
The Nets’ coaching staff needs to splice some of these Cam Thomas possessions together with the same message over and over edited on top:
“Pass the ball” – 7:03 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Halftime: Celtics lead the Nets 62-50. KD with 13, Kyrie with 11. Just two points from Jaylen Brown in the second quarter after 20 in the first. Nets bench has been nonexistent. Seth Curry has four fouls in three minutes. Cam Thomas with three bad shots. Does JV try someone else? – 7:03 PM

@Krisplashed
Nets need to blow dry the court because the towels aren’t getting it done. Sloppy play punctuated with some slip and slide at the end of the half. Celtics opened up a 62-50 lead over the Nets thanks to hot shooting from both Jaylen Brown (22) and Jayson Tatum (14). – 7:02 PM

@AdamHimmelsbach
No longer a tough start for Tatum.
That offensive rebound that led to his first bucket felt significant. – 7:01 PM

@erikslater_
Cam Thomas should not play in the 2nd half.
His decision-making has been horrendous. – 7:01 PM




@RealBobManning
Tatum picks off Durant’s pass to the corner on a great read then hits a pull up 3 the other way. 10 point game. – 7:00 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Celtics start 7-for-8 from the free throw line. Slow start for Mr. Whammy. – 6:59 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
From @BKN_NETSPR: Joe Harris (11 points, 3-of-3 from deep) has extended his season-best streak of games in double figures to four.
In his last three games (including tonight’s first half), Harris is 12-of-16 from 3-point range (66.7 %). – 6:58 PM

@erikslater_
Nets haven’t played a bad half. They’ve been especially terrible finishing in transition. That’s the area that really sticks out.
Jaylen Brown has 22 points on 5/6 shooting from three. He’s been the difference. – 6:57 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Celtics lead 55-48 with 2:32 left in the first half. Boston on a 7-0 since that Harris 3. Malcolm Brogden has 10 points. Celtics getting more out of their bench than the Nets, but Vaughn has only played eight guys so far. – 6:56 PM


@AdamHimmelsbach
Brogdon is perfect from 3 today and is now up to 50.7 percent for the season.
Celtics just have so many guys who are scorching from deep this year. – 6:55 PM

@Krisplashed
Jaylen Brown treating Barclays Center like it’s Rucker Park – 6:55 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
The Celtics guards are doing a great job putting a body on Claxton to keep him off the offensive glass. – 6:55 PM

@RealBobManning
Tatum back on track beating Durant twice from the mid-range. 55-48 – 6:55 PM

@RealBobManning
Kyrie helps the #nets tie it at 48 finding Claxton for an alley-oop and keeping Durant’s transition miss in-bounds before O’Neale found Harris for 3. Brown answers with a turnaround and assist to Brogdon for 3. – 6:54 PM

@erikslater_
Joe Harris is unconscious from deep the last three games.
3/3 tonight and 12/16 over that stretch. – 6:54 PM

@Krisplashed
Joe Harris is 3/3 from downtown so far. Huge shooting night in a huge game. – 6:53 PM



@KeithSmithNBA
Brogdon got fouled, but Boston missed and easy chance to post Tatum against Kyrie on the block.
Celtics offense is a little out of sync without Marcus Smart running the show. – 6:53 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Good stretch for TJ Warren. It’s great to see him back out there. – 6:50 PM

@RealBobManning
#Celtics free up Tatum with some screening action that fooled Irving/Claxton, but he misses another 3. He’s 6 of his last 24 from the field. – 6:50 PM

@erikslater_
Blake Griffin got a nice ovation from the Brooklyn crowd earlier in the quarter.
He had a big smile on his face. – 6:50 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
I’d run something to get Tatum a post touch here for Boston on the next possession. Let him get the ball where he can work without having to create from the arc. – 6:49 PM

@SeanGrandePBP
Jayson Tatum: 1-5, 3 points, 3 turnovers…
…and the Celtics still have the lead 44-39. – 6:47 PM

@BrianTRobb
Celtics might have more transition blocks tonight already than they’ve had all season. – 6:47 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Celtics are doing some highlight stuff in transition D. And they are doing some simple stuff really badly too. Give and take. – 6:46 PM

@erikslater_
T.J. Warren immediately making an impact.
Got a putback off a KD three and just got fouled working into the mid-range.
He’s going to be a difference-maker for Brooklyn. – 6:46 PM

@RealBobManning
Tatum’s OREB chasing down a good bounce on Brown’s miss gets White an open three after #Nets pulled within 4. – 6:44 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
Messy Tatum game so far. Three turnovers and probably should be four. Nets are bodying him on every play. – 6:44 PM

@erikslater_
Nets are actually doing a really nice job on Jayson Tatum. He’s frustrated.
They just got killed by a barrage of Jaylen Brown threes and some poor decisions offensively. – 6:43 PM


@erikslater_

@RealBobManning
Wow. Add Sam Hauser to the chase down block list, rejecting TJ Warren on the run. – 6:43 PM


@AdamHimmelsbach
Really tough start for Tatum. Has been blocked at the rim twice, three turnovers, 3 points. – 6:43 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
Four turnovers for Tatum and he’s trying to force matters to get going. #Celtics #Nets – 6:42 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
You have to find Harris in transition. He loves stepping into those transition triples. Boston sent too many guys back to the paint. – 6:42 PM

@erikslater_
Joe Harris is 2/2 from three to start the game.
Now 11/15 in his last three games. – 6:42 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
Nets are being really physical with Tatum and it’s paying off so far. – 6:41 PM

Kyrie Irving is probably the best small finisher I’ve watched an entire career of. He’s so good at the rim. – 6:38 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
Oh boy, it’s the Blake tribute video!! Didn’t expect this one. #Celtics #Nets – 6:36 PM




@Alex__Schiffer
End of the first quarter: Nets trail the Celtics 35-27. Vaughn put five shooters out there for the last look in KD, Kyrie, Joe, T.J. and Cam. It resulted in a stepback 3 from Thomas, that was off. Alas. Jaylen Brown has 20 points already and is killing them. – 6:35 PM

@briancmahoney
Celtics 35, Nets 27 after one. Jaylen Brown goes 6 for 7, hits all five 3-pointers, and has 20 points. – 6:35 PM

@SeanGrandePBP
Jaylen Brown, who had 20 across the river at MSG on Opening Night last year, has 20 in the first quarter of the road trip here in Brooklyn tonight (5-5 from 3).
35-27, Boston after one. – 6:35 PM


@NickFriedell
Jaylen Brown dominating the Nets in the 1st quarter. He’s getting everywhere he wants on the floor. He’s already got 20 points and is 6-for-7 from the field. – 6:34 PM

@RealBobManning
Brown’s 5 threes pass Tatum/Horford (4) for most threes by a #Celtics player in a quarter this season. – 6:34 PM


@erikslater_
Jaylen Brown has gotten the better of Kevin Durant in this 1st quarter.
He’s got 20 points on 5/5 shooting from three. – 6:33 PM

@briancmahoney
Jaylen Brown working on a 20-point first quarter, making all five 3-pointers. Celtics fans here (there are more than a few) growing louder. – 6:33 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
It’s a little late for Sunday mass, but Kevin Durant just went for a baptism on Grant Williams. – 6:33 PM


@Krisplashed
Jaylen Brown has 20 in the first quarter. He’s 5/5 from downtown. Unconscious – 6:32 PM


@RealBobManning
Durant going after Hauser and Pritchard. #Celtics try to double the first time, but #Nets got the ball around the world to Thomas for 3. Second scramble try got beat back door by Claxton. Now, Durant goes inside for 2. – 6:32 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
The thing about Cam Thomas is that he’s going to shoot the ball. Most of the times he touches it too. – 6:31 PM

@erikslater_
Kyrie’s overhelping off shooters for no reason has been really bad this season. – 6:31 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Kevin Durant is about a minute or less from getting a T. He’s had enough of getting hit on drives without a call. – 6:30 PM

@erikslater_
Jaylen Brown is having a field day offensively with 17 points already.
Kevin Durant struggling to finish through some of these contests early. He’s 3/7. – 6:30 PM

@SeanGrandePBP
The Celtics, who’ve trailed by double-digits just twice in the last 16 games (winning 1 of those), fell behind by 9 early in Brooklyn.
Boston now on a 25-8 run to lead 27-19. (Jaylen Brown already with 17 points) – 6:30 PM

@RealBobManning
Tons of #Celtics fans in the house. Pretty even cheers each way when either team scores. – 6:29 PM

@erikslater_
Not a great matchup to have Cam Thomas playing extended minutes.
Celtics are next-level crisp in their offensive actions. Nets need to be really sharp on rotations. And they’re extremely long defensively, which presents a need for maximum spacing. – 6:28 PM


@KeithSmithNBA
I never thought Jaylen Brown would be this good of a pullup three-point shooter. A testament how hard he’s worked on that shot. – 6:26 PM



@KeithSmithNBA
Kevin Durant got the message from the Miami mini-series for the Celtics: Jump these soft passes for easy steals.
Boston has to be way more sure with the ball. – 6:24 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
I’m assuming we might see some Payton Pritchard minutes tonight. The Nets go small a lot. There are definitely spots for Pritchard tonight. – 6:22 PM

Joe Harris with a quick little hug to his former college teammate Malcolm Brogden out of the timeout. They remain very close. Somewhere @John Hollinger is dusty. – 6:20 PM

@erikslater_
Nets allow a 14-0 run after opening the game 11-2.
Just a flurry of missed fastbreak opportunities, poor halfcourt shot selection, and really bad transition defense. – 6:19 PM

Timeout Jacque Vaughn. Celtics lead 16-11. Seven misses from BK after starting five-for-five. Brown with consecutive 3s. Grant Williams is 3-for-3 as well. Boston moving the ball well to find the open man. Nets offense getting a little iso-heavy. – 6:18 PM

@KeithSmithNBA
Celtics on a 14-0 run. Picked up the defense and really moving the ball well. Drive and kick and the extra pass. That’s Mazzulla Ball. – 6:18 PM

@NYPost_Lewis
Some failures to close out, a 14-0 #Celtics run, and all of a sudden the #Nets are down 16-11. – 6:18 PM

@Krisplashed
What a sequence: Nets go from leading 11-2 to trailing the Celtics 16-11 at the 6:32 mark of Q1. Timeout for Jacque Vaughn after Boston whips the ball around the court to generate an open 3. – 6:18 PM

@briancmahoney
Nets made first five shots, have missed the next seven. Celtics on a 14-0 run to take a 16-11 lead. – 6:18 PM

@AdamHimmelsbach
Celtics fall behind 11-2. Some uneasy no-Mazzulla-timeout moments. 14-0 Celtics run. Nets timeout.
Like clockwork. – 6:18 PM

@RealBobManning
Some incredible transition defense from the #Celtics here, and a bit of fortune with Claxton dropping a 2-on-1 pass, get them ahead after the #Nets hit 5 straight shots to start the game. Big blocks by White & Brown at the rim chasing down Kyrie and Harris. 16-11 Boston. – 6:17 PM

@GwashburnGlobe
#Celtics fall behind 11-2, Mazzulla does not call a timeout and his team responds with a 14-0 run. #Nets – 6:17 PM

@Alex__Schiffer
Just like that the Celtics lead 13-11. Tatum hit a 3 and Kyrie tried to match it with a pull-up of his own. It didn’t go as well. Brown buried an open corner 3 the next time down. – 6:16 PM




@briancmahoney
Nets have hit their first five shots, quick 11-2 lead on Boston. Marcus Smart not playing tonight for the Celtics. – 6:14 PM
