After Action Report
The Celtics rolled past the Trail Blazers 126-95. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Celtics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
