After Action Report

The Pistons pulled away from the Magic 119-104. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
