After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Raptors 134-130. Celtics torched the Raptors on the offensive end. The Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke; Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
