After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Trail Blazers 104-90. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
