After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Cavaliers 123-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
