After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Mavericks 118-107. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
