After Action Report

The Celtics buried the Bulls 132-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
