After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics pulled away from the Spurs 132-117. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
