After Action Report

The Celtics pulled away from the Mavericks 112-96. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Celtics. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
