After Action Report
The Pistons outlasted the Celtics 128-110. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. The Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
