After Action Report
The Cavaliers upended the Celtics 127-115. The breakneck pace played right into Cavaliers' hands. Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
