After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the Celtics squeaked past the 76ers 106-101. Celtics' offense had its way with the 76ers. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
