After Action Report

The Hornets squeaked past the Pistons 116-112. The breakneck pace played right into Hornets' hands. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons are in a full-on tailspin. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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.
