After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics blew the doors off the Nuggets 123-102. Celtics' offense had its way with the Nuggets. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
