After Action Report
The Pistons ran roughshod over the Nets 129-101. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Nets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
