After Action Report
The Pistons survived the Pacers 103-102 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons couldn't shake the cold spell; Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
