After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Nuggets 109-99. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell; the Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
