After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Wizards 123-122. The tempo dragged the Wizards into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell; fresh off a statement win, the Wizards stayed locked in.
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.
- Wizards · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
