After Action Report
The Pistons blew the doors off the 76ers 118-97. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
