The Pistons were beginning to regret trading away Simone Fontecchio in the offseason, but his recent slump has proven them right. After a hot start to the season, Fontecchio has struggled in his last 10 games and the Heat have now lost 4 in a row. For all of Fontecchio's theoretical strengths, he wasn't able to give the Pistons the two-way impact they needed last season and hasn't done it recently for the Heat either.

The Pistons traded Fontecchio to the Heat in pursuit of better shooting, which they got in Duncan Robinson.
