After Action Report
The Pistons snuck past the Knicks 125-121. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Knicks' outside barrage was a constant threat. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
