After Action Report

The Pistons snuck past the Suns 104-103. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
