After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons blew the doors off the Bulls 132-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Bulls couldn't shake the cold spell. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
