After Action Report

The Pistons survived the Clippers 109-108. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; the Pistons looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
