After Action Report
The Celtics handled the Pistons 109-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
