After Action Report
The Pistons outlasted the Celtics 122-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Pistons lately; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
