After Action Report
The Pistons demolished the Pacers 120-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Fresh off a statement win, the Pistons stayed locked in; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
