After Action Report
The Pistons ran roughshod over the Jazz 116-77. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss; Jazz's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
