After Action Report

The Bucks outlasted the Pistons 106-97. Ugly basketball, but the Bucks did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Bucks; the Bucks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bucks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pistons · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
