After Action Report

The Celtics blew the doors off the Bulls 131-110. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. It broke open after the break.
