After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat ran roughshod over the Celtics 123-95. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Celtics are in a full-on tailspin; Celtics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
