After Action Report
The Pistons snuck past the Cavaliers 100-98. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. Fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in; the Cavaliers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
