After Action Report
The Celtics outlasted the Jazz 112-104. Celtics torched the Jazz on the offensive end. Celtics' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
