After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Hornets 114-97. Every possession went the Celtics way. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
