After Action Report
The Pistons snuck past the Suns 123-118. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. The Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke; Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
