Misfiring Pistons can’t solve mystery of the road in losing at Phoenix

FAST BREAKDOWN

Three quick observations from Wednesday night’s 107-100 loss to the Phoenix Suns

SLAM DUNK – The Pistons knew they would miss Reggie Jackson’s scoring and didn’t expect Ish Smith and Beno Udrih to fill that part of his void. But they’re going to need more efficiency than they’ve gotten so far on the road trip. After Smith and Udrih combined to shoot 2 of 17 in Monday’s loss against the Clippers, they followed up by going 3 of 18 against Phoenix. Smith had an especially rough first half, going 1 of 8 and struggling to finish at the rim.
