After Action Report
The Pistons outlasted the Rockets 103-95. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Pistons; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
