After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons took care of the Spurs 100-86. The Pistons won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
