After Action Report

The Celtics downed the Hawks 91-81. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Hawks' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
