To say that the 2018-19 version of Pistons vs. Bucks has been a mismatch would be disrespectful to the meaning of the word and the English language. Detroit has lost all three encounters to the deer, with an average margin of defeat of 16 points per game. Detroit was also blown out in embarrassing fashion twice on the road.
Their only single-digit loss, back on Dec. 17 at Little Caesars Arena, was due to a Milwaukee near-collapse in the second half, where the Bucks established a 15-point third quarter lead before the Pistons made an impressive comeback only to lose by three in the final moments of the game.
