After Action Report

The Celtics rolled past the Pacers 123-94. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Celtics sent shots into the fifth row all night. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Celtics · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
