After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Warriors 130-69. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
