After Action Report
In Cleveland, the Celtics squeaked past the Cavaliers 101-99. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
