After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Jazz 122-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
