After Action Report
The Pistons knocked off the Cavaliers 115-96. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
