After Action Report

The Celtics fended off the 76ers 107-99. Every possession went the Celtics way. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; fresh off a statement win, the 76ers stayed locked in. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
