After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons rolled past the Nets 119-83. Pistons' offense had its way with the Nets. The Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss; Nets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
