After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons demolished the Cavaliers 128-106. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
