Locked On Nets

The Nets were without Ben Simmons in addition to Cam Johnson and Nic Claxton in the second leg of a back-to-back against the Celtics on Saturday.The starters behind Mikal Bridges and Cam Thomas got big minutes, even keeping the game close into the 4th quarters but the quasi-juggernaut Celtics were simply too much late.Brooklyn struggled shooting from beyond the arc, putting up 52 threes in total, and it could have maybe swung a different way had just a few more gone down. Subscribe to Our Subtext to Get Texts from Adam & Doug
