After Action Report
The Celtics outlasted the Wizards 124-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. 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.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
