After Action Report
In a track meet, the Cavaliers edged the Pistons 118-110. Cavaliers' offense had its way with the Pistons. Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Pistons couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
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.
