After Action Report
The Pistons ran roughshod over the Celtics 124-97. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
