After Action Report
The Pistons upended the Hornets 107-90. Every possession went the Pistons way. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Pistons per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
