The Chicago Bulls played spoiler in Derrick Rose’s return to the United Center. Here are the player grades from the Detroit Pistons loss.
The Detroit Pistons dropped their second in a row and fourth in five games in a 112-106 loss to the Chicago Bulls. The Pistons are 2-4 on the young season with both of their wins coming against Indiana.
Detroit continues to be plagued by turnovers, poor defense and lousy 3-point shooting, which has been the case in all of their losses. The Bulls shot 40% from 3-point range, hitting 16-40, while the Pistons hit just 6-29 for 20%, which was the difference in the game.
Luke Kennard and Markieff Morris missed five three’s each, Langston Galloway added another four bricks to the wall and Andre Drummond even got in on the action, missing two attempts himself.
What if Blake Griffin can't come back?. light. pistons doomsday scenario
The game started to get lopsided a few times and would have been much worse if not for the bench. The Pistons showed some fight, but it was a disappointing loss against a team they should handle even without Blake Griffin and Reggie Jackson.
The Pistons are floundering and get no mercy from the schedule, as they are right back at it against Brooklyn Saturday night.
