They lost 110-111 and were robbed of a key foul that cost them the game
The Pistons suffered an injustice today at Madison Square Garden. They lost 110-111 and in the last play they recovered a ball that could give them the victory. But the refs missed a flagrant foul they later admitted got wrong that allowed Brunson’s basket and the Pistons’ loss. Monty Williams, coach of the Pistons, has described the act as a robbery and has asked for an explanation from the league.
The Pistons, the worst team in the NBA
This action has been a hard blow for the Pistons, who are living a season to forget. They are ranked last in the NBA with a record of 8 wins and 49 losses. All they have to do is fight for dignity and hope that luck is with them in the draft lottery. Their opponents today, the Knicks, are fourth in the East with 37 wins and 20 losses.
