After Action Report
The Suns outlasted the Pistons 118-109. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
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.
