The Pistons blew the doors off the Hawks 127-94. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
