After Action Report

The Pistons ran roughshod over the Lakers 121-82. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Pistons' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
