After Action Report
The Pistons edged the Raptors 106-100. The better team simply showed up tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Pistons; Pistons' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
