After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Nuggets 129-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will; the Celtics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
