After Action Report
The Celtics squeaked past the Cavaliers 108-107 in overtime. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Cavaliers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
