After Action Report
The Celtics buried the Hawks 124-100. Celtics torched the Hawks on the offensive end. Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.
