After Action Report
The Celtics outlasted the Pistons 120-112. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Celtics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pistons · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
