After Action Report
In Detroit, the Knicks fended off the Pistons 115-106. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
