After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Bulls 127-97. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
