The Pistons outrebounded the Bobcats 46-34 and that was a big reason for the really easy road in last night. Jonas Jerebko (22 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 2 blocked shots) and Greg Monroe (19 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 1 blocked shot) led the way for the Pistons last night. Ben Gordon (14 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 blocked shot), Brandon Knight (13 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 blocked shot) and Tayshaun Prince (10 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal) also pitched in for the Pistons last night.

The Pistons just couldn’t keep up with the Bucks last night, plain and simple. Greg Monroe led the way for the Pistons in this game with 32 points, 16 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 blocked shot. Brandon Knight had a solid game too with 20 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 blocked shot. Tayshaun Prince (13 points, 1 rebound and 4 assists) and Rodney Stuckey (11 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 blocked shot in 20 minutes) also pitched in for the Pistons last night.

20-year old point guard Brandon Knight has been getting a lot of P.T. so far this year due to Rodney Stuckey’s injury, and he’s making the most of it. Knight has played in 10 games (4 starts) for the Pistons so far this year and he is averaging 28.6 minutes, 11.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. The Pistons really like what they are seeing out of Knight, so he will likely get his fair share of P.T. even after Stuckey returns to action. 25-year old power forward Vernon Macklin hasn’t played much for the Pistons so far this year. He has played in 6 games (0 starts) for the Pistons so far this year and he is averaging 4.3 minutes, 1.2 points and 0.2 rebounds per game.
