After Action Report
The Mavericks buried the Pistons 121-92. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Mavericks; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Mavericks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
