After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics outlasted the Heat 115-102. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Heat came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
