After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Bucks 101-98. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
