After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons rolled past the Hawks 124-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
