After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Timberwolves 112-101. The Timberwolves couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
