After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Rockets 123-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
