After Action Report
The Knicks handled the Pistons 108-94. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
