After Action Report

The Pistons pulled away from the Rockets 114-102. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. The Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
