After Action Report
The Pistons took care of the Lakers 113-97. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
