After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Suns 101-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately; Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. 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
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
