After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics ran roughshod over the Knicks 120-89. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Celtics; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
