After Action Report
The Pistons held off the Bucks 121-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
