After Action Report
The Pistons blew the doors off the Kings 122-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
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.
- Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
