After Action Report
The Pistons ran roughshod over the Jazz 147-109. Pistons torched the Jazz on the offensive end. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Pistons. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
