After Action Report
The Celtics squeaked past the Nuggets 105-103. Celtics torched the Nuggets on the offensive end. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics; the Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
