After Action Report
In Detroit, the Knicks ran roughshod over the Pistons 121-84. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Knicks stayed locked in; shots just aren't falling for the Pistons lately. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
