After Action Report

The Celtics outlasted the Mavericks 114-108. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Celtics. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
