After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics demolished the Pacers 127-93. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; 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. Garbage time started early.
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.
