After Action Report
The Mavericks snuck past the Celtics 110-107. The better team simply showed up tonight. Mavericks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell. 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.
