After Action Report
The Celtics outlasted the 76ers 126-118. The tempo dragged the 76ers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
