After Action Report
The Rockets handled the Celtics 86-67. Rockets torched the Celtics on the offensive end. The Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke; shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
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.
