After Action Report

The Celtics survived the Bobcats 98-93. The Celtics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
