After Action Report
The Pistons blew the doors off the Pacers 114-92. Pistons torched the Pacers on the offensive end. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
