After Action Report

The Celtics outlasted the Warriors 100-94. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Warriors; the Warriors carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
