After Action Report
The Pistons squeaked past the Kings 96-94. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Pistons. Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Kings' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
