After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons outlasted the Wizards 103-95. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Pistons; fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
