Pistons stun Lakers in Game 1 of NBA finals
Detroit used a gritty, tempo controlling approach to upset Los Angeles 87-75 as Shaquille ONeal led LA with 34 points but other stars struggled. Chauncey Billups led Detroit with 22, Rasheed Wallace 14, Tayshaun Prince 11, and Ben Wallace sparked late in the third as the Pistons took control. The Lakers sank under a flat third quarter and weak supporting scoring, inviting a Tuesday date for Game 2.
