After Action Report
The Celtics outlasted the Bobcats 116-110. The Bobcats had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
