After Action Report
The Celtics squeaked past the Rockets 107-104. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; the Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
