After Action Report
In a track meet, the Celtics survived the Suns 109-105. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
