Grading the Boston Celtics Game 2 vs. the Nets, player-by-player

It isn’t looking good with the Boston Celtics now down 2 games to 0 in their first-round series with the mighty Brooklyn Nets after their 130 – 108 loss Tuesday night. So, in our commensurate second installment of grading each of Boston’s players on an individual basis, we wouldn’t expect to find the best report card.
