After Action Report

The Pistons squeaked past the Trail Blazers 118-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
