After Action Report
The Pistons fended off the Trail Blazers 130-122. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed.
