After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Raptors 116-74. Pistons torched the Raptors on the offensive end. The Pistons carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
