After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Warriors 126-96. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Warriors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
