The Nets handled the Pistons 111-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Nets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Pistons lately. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
