After Action Report
The Pistons downed the Celtics 124-108. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics are in a full-on tailspin. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
