After Action Report
The Pistons edged the Spurs 108-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Spurs · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
