After Action Report
The Celtics fended off the Cavaliers 107-99. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Celtics are in a full-on tailspin; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
