After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Knicks 121-78. The Celtics' lockdown unit choked off Knicks' offense. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
