After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons blew the doors off the Hornets 111-74. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Pistons bent the defense out of shape from deep; Hornets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.
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.
