After Action Report
The Spurs ran roughshod over the Pistons 121-98. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
