Boston took the lead briefly during the third quarter, but Detroit battled back to finish the quarter up 78-69. The Pistons offense has really starting clicking. They drained 4-of-5 from long range. Chauncey Billups is up to 17 points, and Rip Hamilton leads Detroit with 21 points.

Paul Pierce has a game-high 22 points. Rajon Rondo was tagged for a technical foul in the quarter.
