After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pistons squeaked past the Bulls 105-101. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. The Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
