After Action Report
The Spurs buried the Celtics 112-84. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Spurs couldn't shake the cold spell; the Celtics are in a full-on tailspin. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
