After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons outlasted the Timberwolves 109-103. The Pistons won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
