After Action Report
The Cavaliers ran roughshod over the Pistons 124-93. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. 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 · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
