After Action Report
The Pistons buried the 76ers 130-105. Pistons torched the 76ers on the offensive end. The Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pistons bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
