After Action Report
The Pistons ran roughshod over the Nuggets 113-90. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
