After Action Report
In Detroit, the Hawks survived the Pistons 102-99. Hawks' offense had its way with the Pistons. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; Hawks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
