After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 126-87. Celtics' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. The Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; 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. Never a doubt in this one.
