After Action Report
The Suns survived the Celtics 85-82. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. Shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
