After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Pacers 112-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Pacers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
