Brad Stevens appeases daughter, gives Celtics fans Tacko Fall

Boston Celtics coach Brad Stevens honored a request from his daughter to "give the people what they want" in Friday night's 114-93 victory over the Detroit Pistons.

As Boston continued to expand the lead in the third quarter, some Celtics fans started chanting "We want Tacko!'' -- hoping rookie center Tacko Fall would get some playing time late in a blowout.

They got their wish with 4:31 left in the fourth. Fans roared when Fall got up from the bench and removed his warm-ups, and then entered just the second game of his career.
