After Action Report
The Pistons snuck past the Bulls 98-97. The Pistons won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
