After Action Report
The Hornets took care of the Pistons 106-92. Hornets torched the Pistons on the offensive end. The Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Pistons are in a full-on tailspin. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
