Pistons drop season finale against Nets to salvage a few lottery combinations

Most Valuable Player

Will Bynum scored 23 points 10 shots. In a game few others cared, it’s tempting to say the pending free agent was playing for his next contract, but that wasn’t the case. Bynum plays hard every moment of every game.

That was… uninspired

Neither team had the mental focus to show proper form on their jump shots (combining to shoot 28 percent outside the restricted area) or the physical willingness to defend the interior (allowing a combined 70 percent shooting in the restricted area).

Defining moment

Mirza Teletovic adjusted his shoe while the Pistons took one free throw of one, allowing Andre Drummond to swoop in for the rebound and putback dunk.
