After Action Report
The Pistons buried the Wizards 110-68. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Pistons; the Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
