Another Dominating Performance Leads Pistons To Another W
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rodney Stucky Had Another Solid Game Off The Bench
ESPN Reports: After such a dominating performance by Andris Biedrins in the first game of the season, all bets were off on how the under-sized Pistons would handle Memphis big-men Hamed Haddadi & Dwight Howard, however once more this season, the Pistons' hot shooting and ability to run the floor led them to another easy victory. In the first quarter Ben Gordon showed his shooting ability by dropping 13 first quarter points leading the Pistons to an early lead with a 6 point lead going into the second quarter. As the second quarter rolled around, the Piston defense was once again proved to me a vital roll in the win, as they forced 6TO's and outscored the Grizzlies 34-26 in the quarter allowing the Pistons to take a 14 point lead into the half. The third quarter was is where it really got interesting, second year guard,OJ Mayo, almost single-handedly shot his team back into the game, including a three that brought the Grizzlies within 2. However the Pistons managed to go on a run of their own and stave off the threat. When the fourth quarter started the Pistons yet again went on another run allowing them to secure a 98-80 point lead in the middle of the quarter which they easily rode all the way to another W.
