After Action Report
The Pistons pulled away from the Celtics 104-94. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
