After Action Report

In Detroit, the Pistons survived the Spurs 108-103. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
