Pistons get stung repeatedly by Hornets, lose 114-98

The Detroit Pistons were never in the game, finding themselves down by double digits early and things only getting worse from there.

It was yet another frustrating defensive performance that saw the Pistons allow the Charlotte Hornets to shoot 45.7 percent from the three-point line.

The most concerning thing about the Hornets hot shooting was just how many of their attempts came from wide-open looks.

Five Hornets players hit multiple threes, with Nicolas Batum the most lethal, knocking down 4 of 7 on his way to putting up 15 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals and a block.
