After Action Report
In Detroit, the Spurs edged the Pistons 106-98. Ugly basketball, but the Spurs did just enough. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
