The Pistons were on a hot streak, or something like that.
They had been playing better over the past week before Wednesday’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets brought them back to reality.
Getting several players back from COVID protocols has helped. They had been playing tough down the stretch of several games this season, during their two-game win streak, turning those close ones into victories. Their best win of the season came Monday at Milwaukee, and as they start to get some of their players back from COVID protocols, they’re starting to develop some good habits, which could bode well for the remainder of the season.
