After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics stunned the Hawks 112-111. The better team simply showed up tonight. Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it

- Hawks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
