After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons snuck past the Celtics 121-119. Pistons torched the Celtics on the offensive end. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Celtics stayed locked in. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
