It took two overtimes for the Celtics to finally pull away from the Nets, but they did, thanks to big plays from Amari Williams, Payton Pritchard, and Jaylen Brown. Pritchard led the way for Boston with 32 points, while Brown recorded a 27-point, 10-rebound, and 12-assist triple-double.
The Nets showed grit and competitiveness despite their record. This includes a 30-point performance from Michael Porter Jr.
Still, at the end of the day, it was the Celtics who proved to be the better team.
