After Action Report
The Wizards rolled past the Pistons 143-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
