After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 137-97. The tempo dragged the Cavaliers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Celtics. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
