After Action Report
The Celtics took care of the Cavaliers 103-89. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Cavaliers sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it

- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
