After Action Report
The Pistons demolished the Celtics 123-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Celtics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
