After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the 76ers 104-102. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
