The Detroit Pistons did n't disappoint in their home opener, dominating the Orlando Magic, 108 - 82, at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Friday. The Pistons (1 - 1) came into this game off a disappointing opening loss and put it to the Magic (0 - 2) in this game. The second quarter was especially decisive, as Detroit scored 30 points, while holding Orlando to just nine in that 12 - minute stretch. They did n't let up in the third quarter either, outscoring the Magic 32 - 20. The Pistons were clicking on both ends, as they shot over 50 percent from the field and held the Magic to under 35 percent shooting. After playing all five starters 35 - plus minutes in the opener, the Magic were clearly tired here. No player reached the 30 - minute total in this blowout, as 12 players played at least eight minutes. Aaron Gordon was a lone bright spot, recording 17 points and seven rebounds in the loss. Nikola Vucevic did grab 14 boards, but scored just seven points on a 3 - for - 12 night. Mario Hezonja and Jeff Green both scored in double figures off the bench. After leading the league in rebounding last year, Andre Drummond bounced back from his weak opener to grab 20 boards in this blowout win. He also added 12 points and two steals, while doing that damage in just 27 minutes of play. Tobias Harris led the team in scoring, dropping 18 points and four rebounds in the win. Ish Smith was very efficient as the starting point guard, tallying 16 points and eight assists, while going 8 - for - 13 from the field and committing just two turnovers. Marcus Morris provided 17 points and eight rebounds of his own. Orlando has a tough task ahead of them, as they play the second half of a back - to - back against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday for their next game. Detroit is off until Sunday, when they host the Milwaukee Bucks for their next fixture.
