The Nets face the Celtics in the first of a back-to-back this weekend following a four-day rest. Paul Pierce is uncertain after suffering a sore thumb 10 days ago. The Celtics could have used him against the Cavs Thursday. Cleveland and LeBron James extended their dominance over Boston with a 20-point win. Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo will play. Bobby Simmons (personal issue) did not travel.
