Ben Gordon netted 15 points off the bench, while Rodney Stuckey had 14 points, eight boards and five assists in a losing cause.

Coming into this season, it was expected that the Pistons would be a running team that would threaten to score 100 points on a nightly basis.
But after seven games the Pistons have only cracked the 100-point barrier one time and are averaging 91.3 points — 25th in the league after Sunday’s games.
