After Action Report

The Pistons buried the Pacers 135-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Pacers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pistons · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
