After Action Report
In Detroit, the Wizards ran roughshod over the Pistons 132-93. Wizards' scorers couldn't be contained. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
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.
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
