After Action Report
The Hornets rolled past the Pistons 132-104. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- 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.
