After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Nuggets 118-81. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
