After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics downed the Cavaliers 110-92. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
