After Action Report
The Pistons squeaked past the Wizards 104-102. Pistons torched the Wizards on the offensive end. The Pistons ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it

- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
