After Action Report
The Pistons squeaked past the Celtics 106-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pistons' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
