After Action Report
The Wizards squeaked past the Celtics 94-93. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Wizards. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Wizards' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.
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.
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
