After Action Report
In Detroit, the Celtics buried the Pistons 128-107. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
