After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Hawks 133-94. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
