After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics squeaked past the Cavaliers 108-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Celtics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
