After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Celtics 120-98. Pistons' offense had its way with the Celtics. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
