After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons buried the Celtics 124-83. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. The Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
