After Action Report
The Pistons fended off the Celtics 114-107. Pistons' offense had its way with the Celtics. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
