After Action Report

The Celtics edged the Pacers 90-84. Celtics' stops on the defensive end set the tone. The Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
