After Action Report

The Celtics survived the Warriors 109-104. Celtics' offense had its way with the Warriors. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Warriors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
