After Action Report
The Pistons upended the Bulls 120-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss; fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. An upset for the books.

- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
