After Action Report

The Pistons ran roughshod over the Clippers 120-100. The Clippers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
