After Action Report

The Pistons ran roughshod over the Mavericks 116-91. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; the Pistons couldn't shake the cold spell. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
