After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Hawks 134-94. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
