After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons squeaked past the Bucks 101-98. The Bucks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. Pistons' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Bucks pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
