After Action Report
The Celtics held off the Pistons 100-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Celtics' outside barrage was a constant threat. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
