Well, I’m glad that’s over.
Your Detroit Pistons lost 130-106 to the New York Knicks after giving up 72 points in the first half of play, and going into halftime down 20 points. The Pistons made a 21-6 run in the third quarter and closed the gap to 12 points, but the bench lineups, in particular, struggled to make anything happen on either end, and the deficit ballooned back above 20 points in the fourth, and that was the ballgame.
Saddiq Bey and Bojan Bogdanovic were bright spots for the Pistons offensively; Saddiq put up 26 points on 15 shots, including 4-8 from downtown (nice to see after a quiet first game against Orlando) and Bojan scored 18 points on 9 shots, getting several transition baskets where the Knicks just never stopped the ball.
