After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics survived the Cavaliers 101-98. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
