After Action Report
In Detroit, the Pistons ran roughshod over the Hornets 136-109. The Pistons got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons steamroller is in full effect right now. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
