After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons handled the Hawks 114-101. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
