After Action Report
The Pistons pulled away from the Magic 118-103. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pistons carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pistons · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
