After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons snuck past the Bulls 107-105. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. The Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
