After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Pacers 109-88. The Pistons won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; the Pacers are in a full-on tailspin. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
