After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the Bulls 119-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
