After Action Report
The Celtics demolished the Cavaliers 127-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
