The Pistons pulled away from the Celtics 131-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
