Speaking of the Celtics, Brunson said: "What we want to play in the next round is the defending champion, which will definitely be very different. It's not that we don't appreciate the Pistons, but the Celtics have experience. The Pistons' players have strong physical confrontation. They bring the battle to us. We need to respond. We did it. Every round of the series is different. You need to respect each opponent. Every time you make adjustments, but everything is different."
