After Action Report
The Pistons fended off the Timberwolves 109-102. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
