After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Pistons 113-94. The breakneck pace played right into Celtics' hands. Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
