After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Grizzlies 136-120. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
