After Action Report

In Detroit, the Pistons handled the Timberwolves 110-95. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
