After Action Report
In Boston, the Jazz demolished the Celtics 128-105. Jazz torched the Celtics on the offensive end. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
