After Action Report

In Detroit, the Pistons survived the Celtics 136-133. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
