After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Mavericks 114-81. Celtics' offense had its way with the Mavericks. The Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
