After Action Report

The Celtics ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 114-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
