After Action Report
The Pistons rolled past the Hawks 117-96. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Pistons' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. It broke open after the break.

- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
