After Action Report
The Pistons demolished the Bulls 124-85. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
