After Action Report

In Boston, the Celtics buried the Cavaliers 131-84. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Celtics. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
