After Action Report
The Celtics held off the Suns 105-98. Celtics torched the Suns on the offensive end. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. 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.
