The 4-3 Detroit Pistons opened their West Coast road trip on a bad footing, getting demolished 114-82 by the 6-1 Los Angeles Clippers.
The Detroit Pistons got out to an early 6-4 lead, and the Los Angeles Clippers caught fire and never released their grip on this game. The Clippers led 62-32 at half and by a ridiculous 73-35 margin early in the third quarter, expanding it to 41 points late in the quarter.
The Pistons were dominated in every facet of the game by a superior Clippers squad, and the best team by far won this one on Monday night.
Let’s take a deep breath, maybe a shot (yeah, it’s probably early morning as you read this, but who are we kidding? You’re going to need a shot to get through reliving this thing), and get to the player grades.
