After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics demolished the 76ers 123-90. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The 76ers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
