After Action Report
In Dallas, the Pistons snuck past the Mavericks 119-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
