After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Bucks 144-101. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
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.
- Bucks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bucks · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
