Saturday night may have set off a false impression for how this December from hell may go. The Thunder and Bucks have reminded the Detroit Pistons that really good NBA teams typically play really well.
The Pistons for the first possession after the opening tip, but that was it. And once the second half hit the Bucks, who have been the league’s best second half team, dominated.
Blake Griffin was the only interesting part of this game for the Pistons. He was masterful in the first half, scoring 22 points.
