After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Raptors 109-105. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
