After Action Report
The Pistons demolished the Knicks 123-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
