After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Trail Blazers 114-92. Pistons torched the Trail Blazers on the offensive end. Fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Trail Blazers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
