After Action Report
The Pistons edged the Nets 104-98. Pistons torched the Nets on the offensive end. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
