After Action Report
The Nets pulled away from the Pistons 113-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Nets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
