After Action Report
The Celtics demolished the Bulls 118-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
