After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Heat 127-114. The Heat had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
