After Action Report
The Pistons snuck past the Celtics 114-113. Pistons controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
