After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Heat 118-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. The Celtics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
