After Action Report

The Pistons squeaked past the Kings 94-91. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; shots just aren't falling for the Pistons lately. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
