After Action Report
The Pistons squeaked past the Pacers 106-101. Pistons' offense had its way with the Pacers. The Pistons carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
