After Action Report
The Pistons buried the Mavericks 116-91. Every possession went the Pistons way. The Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
