After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics ran roughshod over the Hawks 130-104. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Celtics; the Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- 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.
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
