After Action Report
The Pistons squeaked past the Magic 85-80. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; shots just aren't falling for the Magic lately. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
