The Heat Get Trampled by Pistons in 104-81 Blowout

The Miami Heat get blown out by the Detroit Pistons due to a lackluster performance on offense.

The Miami Heat suffered arguably their worst loss of the season so far, getting outscored 104-81 by the Detroit Pistons. The Heat shot only 40.5 percent from the field, and only scored more than 20 points in one quarter.

Their starting five looked overmatched Wednesday night, and finished the game with a plus-minus of -101 combined. Ouch.

Another huge problem for the Heat was their perimeter defense. The Pistons only shot 41.8 percent from the field, but they lit it up from down town, connecting at a clip of 51.
