After Action Report
In Charlotte, the Celtics buried the Bobcats 119-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Bobcats came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
