After Action Report
The Celtics took care of the Pistons 135-120. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
