After Action Report

The Celtics snuck past the Cavaliers 109-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
