After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics blew the doors off the Grizzlies 118-98. Celtics' offense had its way with the Grizzlies. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
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.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
