After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons shocked the Trail Blazers 105-93. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pistons are in a full-on tailspin; Pistons' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
