After Action Report
The Pistons fended off the Celtics 118-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons steamroller is in full effect right now; Pistons' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
