After Action Report

The Pistons survived the Spurs 149-146 in double overtime. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
