After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Raptors 125-85. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Raptors' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
