As Dumars stated, the Pistons dominated in the second qtr with help from both the starters and hayes burning the nets for I believe possibly all of his 13 points. (he was 4-5 from the field and hit 3 three pointers.

The Pistons scored 64 points in the first half, but gave up 60 in an all second half garbage time affair. J ONeal was able to pad his stats in the third qtr as did rip and tay during this stint when both teams traded buckets and ended up with 29 a piece. Rip hit what looked like 3 three pointers from the left in a row and Tay scored on a assortment of spins and post up moves.

Pacers first team to score over 87 points on the Pistons during this streak and only the second team to score over 100 pts on the Pistons in December (Det beat Mem 113-111 on 12/11). The # 2 D took a little beating tonight, but the game was over at halftime and all they had to do really was trade hoops to win for sure.
