After Action Report
The Pistons blew the doors off the Hornets 117-91. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
