After Action Report

In a track meet, the Celtics ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 124-96. Celtics controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' outside barrage was a constant threat. Tonight's Timberwolves utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
