After Action Report
The Kings squeaked past the Celtics 118-114. Kings torched the Celtics on the offensive end. Fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in; the Celtics are in a full-on tailspin. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
