After Action Report
The Hawks demolished the Celtics 136-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. The Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
