After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Knicks 113-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
