Pistons beat Bulls in season finale, end with 39 wins

Chicago — It’s not the finish to the season that they wanted, but the Pistons still wrapped up the year the way they started it, with a victory.

But Game No. 82 is the disappointing end to what was a promising start to the season.

The 80 games in between the two wins didn’t quite go so well. They’ll start the long offseason with more questions than answers about their long-term future, but reveled in one last victory for the season.

Without three starters, the Pistons put together a good offensive performance, with 66 points in the first half, on the way to a 119-87 rout over the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night at United Center in the season finale.
