After Action Report

The Pistons rolled past the Warriors 124-86. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

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.
  • Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
