After Action Report
The Hawks took care of the Pistons 120-105. Hawks' offense had its way with the Pistons. The Hawks came in with something to prove after a loss; Hawks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
