After Action Report
In Portland, the Celtics pulled away from the Trail Blazers 118-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
