Blazers Cruise Past Pistons Thanks to Balanced Team Play

The Portland Trail Blazers face the Detroit Pistons today coming off of three precarious road wins in the state of Florida. They finally made victory look easy in the Motor City. Poor defense scuttled their first half, but they clamped down enough to made balanced scoring and yet another outrageous game from Damian Lillard tell in the second. It’s not often Portland carries a double-digit lead into the final three minutes of the game, but they pulled it off tonight, putting five players in double figures, assisting on two-third of their buckets, and cruising to a 124-101 win.
