After Action Report
The Pistons blew the doors off the Celtics 125-94. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pistons' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; the Pistons steamroller is in full effect right now. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
