After Action Report
The Clippers rolled past the Pistons 125-97. The Clippers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Clippers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
