After Action Report

In Detroit, the Pistons squeaked past the 76ers 103-99. The Pistons won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the 76ers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The 76ers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
