After Action Report

The Pistons buried the Nets 146-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pistons looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
