After Action Report
The Celtics knocked off the Pistons 111-107. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Celtics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
