After Action Report

In a track meet, the Pistons survived the Rockets 112-107. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
