After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Celtics took care of the Kings 126-111. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; fresh off a statement win, the Celtics stayed locked in. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
