After Action Report
The Pistons outlasted the Heat 104-98. The Pistons won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Heat's outside barrage was a constant threat. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
