After Action Report
The Pistons demolished the Nuggets 133-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Nuggets; Nuggets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
