After Action Report

The Pistons survived the Nets 122-119 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
