After Action Report

In a track meet, the Pistons buried the Timberwolves 124-101. Pistons torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. The Pistons couldn't shake the cold spell; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
