After Action Report

The Pistons rolled past the Timberwolves 119-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Pistons' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; the Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.
