After Action Report

The Pistons blew the doors off the Hornets 114-91. The breakneck pace played right into Pistons' hands. Shots just aren't falling for the Pistons lately; Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
