After Action Report
The Pistons survived the Clippers 102-99. Pistons torched the Clippers on the offensive end. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Clippers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
