After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Spurs 117-113. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
