After Action Report

The Pistons blew the doors off the Bulls 112-90. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Pistons steamroller is in full effect right now; the Bulls played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
