After Action Report

In Boston, the Celtics downed the Raptors 121-104. Celtics' offense had its way with the Raptors. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

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.
  • Raptors · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
