After Action Report
The Heat demolished the Pistons 114-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. The Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
