After Action Report
The Pistons survived the Celtics 126-125. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss; the Pistons bent the defense out of shape from deep. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
