After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Wizards 131-101. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Celtics. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
