After Action Report

The Warriors ran roughshod over the Pistons 118-77. Warriors' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Warriors; Warriors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
