After Action Report
The Rockets demolished the Pistons 116-93. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.
