After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Knicks 121-118. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
