After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Raptors 97-95. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Raptors' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
