After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 122-99. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.

- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
