Pistons vs. Nets final score: Too Little too Late in Brooklyn as Detroit lets one go

Just kidding. No Poetry Slam tonight.

Instead, the Pistons lost a close one to a tougher-than-advertised-by-their-record Brooklyn Nets team 87-83. This game started as a Sunday snoozer, as both teams shot atrociously in the first half, putting up a score of 41 to 35 in the first 24. There were minimal highlights from either side, the lone bright spot for the Pistons being Kentavious Caldwell-Pope's play on both ends. He continued to make his case for first-team all defense with loads of hustle, and remained active on the offense end to get good mid-range looks and get to the foul line.
