After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Hawks 104-83. Every possession went the Celtics way. Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
