After Action Report
The Pistons survived the Warriors 104-99. Ugly basketball, but the Pistons did just enough. The Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Warriors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
