The Celtics stormed through Brooklyn, beating the Nets 129-106 and rose to 35-26 on the season. Jason Tatum was in very good form, hurting the Nets, who have yet to find their chemistry and identity.
The New York team suffered their 29th loss (31-29) and are waiting for new additions to the team (including Ben Simmons) to step up.
