After Action Report
In Boston, the Nuggets buried the Celtics 114-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. The Nuggets couldn't shake the cold spell; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
