After Action Report

The Celtics blew the doors off the 76ers 111-82. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
