The Celtics buried the Pistons 121-101. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
