Detroit — The Pistons are a different team when their shots are falling and they’re taking care of the ball. They’re pretty much the same team that they’ve shown all season when they turn the ball over and don’t shoot well.
Those two extremes were the story of an encouraging first half, then a flip-the-script third quarter that helped the Oklahoma City Thunder erase a double-digit lead in the third quarter and get within three points in the fourth quarter.
The Pistons seemed to regain control midway through the fourth quarter, but the Thunder rallied for a stunning 114-103 victory on Monday night at Little Caesars Arena.
