FAST BREAKDOWN
Three quick observations from Wednesday night’s 98-91 win over the Dallas Mavericks at The Palace
SLAM DUNK – Stan Van Gundy will take 25 more just like the first half – and try to wipe the second half from his memory bank. The team he envisioned heading into training camp coalesced out of the mist in the getaway game before the All-Star break, dominating Dallas from the opening tip. The Pistons effectively won the game in the first four minutes of the first quarter and the first five minutes of the second, outscoring the Mavericks 10-0 to start the game and 19-6 to start the second.
