After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Kings 128-105. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will. 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.
