After Action Report

The Celtics rolled past the Bucks 120-96. The Bucks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
