After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons took care of the Wizards 120-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; the Pistons bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
