The Milwaukee Bucks (8-6) beat the Detroit Pistons (10-4) 99-95 on Wednesday night. The Bucks forced 16 Piston turnovers, blocked 16 shots, and held Detroit to 35.3 percent shooting from the field.
Milwaukee’s defense was hounding from the get-go, forcing Detroit into errant turnovers, rushed shots, and overall bad looks from the field. The Bucks were the more aggressive and physical team, and they had Detroit shook for a majority of this game.
Yet the Pistons – they of five comebacks when trailing by 10 or more points this season – of course found a way to rally in the fourth.
