After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pistons stunned the Clippers 110-109. The tempo dragged the Clippers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Pistons' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
