After Action Report

The Pistons outlasted the Hornets 114-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Pistons owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
