After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Cavaliers 142-100. Celtics torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
