After Action Report
The Celtics pulled away from the Pistons 126-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
