After Action Report
In Boston, the Heat squeaked past the Celtics 117-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
