After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Spurs 131-91. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics; Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
