After Action Report
The Celtics downed the Heat 118-104. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
