After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons blew the doors off the Lakers 112-86. Every possession went the Pistons way. The Pistons ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
