After Action Report

In Boston, the Warriors downed the Celtics 125-108. The breakneck pace played right into Warriors' hands. The Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Warriors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
