After Action Report
The Celtics downed the 76ers 106-91. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
