After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Celtics 121-88. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
