Another hot start fizzled out for the Pistons, as they led by as much as 13 in the first quarter.
The final score was 119-107, and this game feels like yet another win was left on the table. These Pistons have now lost eight of their last nine games, and will lose more ground in their playoff pursuit.
The road after this game does not get much easier for the Pistons, as they have a four game Western Conference road trip coming up. Lets take a look at three takeaways from this disappointing loss.
