After Action Report

The Celtics outlasted the Bucks 120-103. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
