After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Trail Blazers 113-102. Celtics' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
