After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 141-114. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. It broke open after the break.
