Minneapolis — Through three quarters, it wasn’t a game that was easy on the eyes.

The Pistons trailed by 14 points and were showing signs that they were ready to give in.

Then came the fourth.

And coach Dwane Casey challenged them to put up a better effort.

The Pistons responded, overcoming the deficit, taking the game to overtime in the final second and pulling out a 129-123 overtime win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night at Target Center.
