After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons outlasted the Rockets 112-104. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
