After Action Report

In Boston, the Celtics shocked the Bobcats 103-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
