Seems like this is a nightly occurrence these days, the Mason Plumlee dunk that catapults you out of your daze and back into the game with razor-sharp focus. This time, it came near the end of the second quarter, with Plumlee splitting two Boston Celtics defenders and finishing strong at the rim, inspiring Nets announcer Ian Eagle to call Plumlee “the human highlight reel.”
Plumlee’s punctuation gave him 10 points in the first half, adding seven rebounds and two assists as the Nets deadlocked the Celtics through the first half at 56.
