Pistons survive Drummond ejection, pick up 5th straight win in dropping Nets

FAST BREAKDOWN

Three quick observations from Sunday night’s 108-96 win over the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center

1-HANGING ON – What appeared headed for a routine Pistons victory on Easter evening turned dramatically late in the third quarter when Andre Drummond and Quincy Acy were ejected after a brief skirmish involving pushing but no punches under the basket. The Pistons led 83-70 at the time with 18 seconds left in the quarter. The Pistons struggled to generate much in the way of offense in the fourth quarter, scoring just 10 points in the first 10 minutes, but they didn’t allow the Nets to get anything going, either.
