After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Wizards 130-90. Celtics torched the Wizards on the offensive end. The Celtics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
