After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Raptors 104-103. The Raptors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. Fresh off a statement win, the Celtics stayed locked in; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
