After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics knocked off the Hawks 110-104. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
