After Action Report

The Celtics buried the 76ers 121-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
