After Action Report

The Celtics demolished the Pistons 141-93. The Celtics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Celtics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
