After Action Report

The Pistons took care of the Raptors 109-90. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Pistons · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
