After Action Report

The Pistons demolished the 76ers 128-107. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; the Pistons played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The 76ers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The 76ers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
