After Action Report

In Cleveland, the Celtics rolled past the Cavaliers 122-98. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. The Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
