After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics snuck past the Grizzlies 101-97. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. The Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
