After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pistons survived the Wizards 112-108. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
