After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Hawks 98-88. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
