After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Bulls 123-95. Celtics' defense smothered the Bulls all night. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics sent shots into the fifth row all night. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
