After Action Report
The Suns blew the doors off the Pistons 118-97. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Suns pushed the pace until the other side broke; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
