After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics fended off the Heat 111-104. The Heat couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Celtics; the Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
