After Action Report

In Boston, the Celtics snuck past the Kings 112-107. Every possession went the Celtics way. Celtics' balanced five covered every spot on the floor; the Celtics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
