After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Knicks 97-94. The Knicks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
