After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics blew the doors off the Bulls 118-90. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
