After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Spurs 124-95. Pistons' offense had its way with the Spurs. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Spurs couldn't shake the cold spell. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
