After Action Report
The Celtics fended off the Wizards 120-113. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
