After Action Report
In Boston, the Pistons demolished the Celtics 115-86. Pistons' offense had its way with the Celtics. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
