After Action Report

The Pistons demolished the Bobcats 121-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bobcats · 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.
  • Pistons · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
