After Action Report
The Pistons took care of the Timberwolves 119-100. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
