After Action Report
The Celtics demolished the Rockets 111-84. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Celtics. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
