Auburn Hills — If this is it, the Pistons made sure it was quite the sendoff.
With talks heating up about a potential move to downtown Detroit, the Pistons used a 20-2 second-quarter surge to overwhelm the Magic and cruise to a 108-82 win Friday in what could potentially be the franchise’s final home opener at The Palace.
Tobias Harris scored 18 and Marcus Morris 17 to lead a balanced scoring attack for the Pistons (1-1). Ish Smith added 16 points and eight assists, Beno Udrih and Aron Baynes each scored 13 off the bench, and Andre Drummond had 12 points and 20 rebounds.
