After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Pacers 109-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.
