Look the reigning NBA Coach of the year Dwayne Casey has the Detroit Pistons buying in and buying in like an Inside Trader. A game that was nip and tuck throughout the first half and Washington led at the break 55-54 was all Detroit in the second half.

Behind the Pistons version of the Big Three in Blake Griffin (23 pts 9 rebs 6 asst), Andre Drummond (16 pts 11 rebs 2 blks) and Reggie Jackson (19 pts 6 asst) Detroit went on a 31-17 run in the 3rd frame to put them up 85-72 after three.

Pistons back-up combo guard Langston Galloway (who was dunked on earlier in the game by Wizards PF Ian Mahinmi) powered that Pistons bench with 22 points. 

Washington stayed the course to their credit and cut that lead to 94-91 Pistons with just over three minutes remaining in the contest.  It was the Blake Show, Mr. Drummond and Mr. December dba Reggie Jackson down the stretch as they they made free throws and a dunk here or there and game time the "D" 3-1-3 wins 106-95.

John Wall (21 pts 8 asst 7 rebs) and Bradley Beal (21 pts 1-7 3pt FG) led the way for Washington as they both combined to shoot 19 for 42 which is just under 46%. Wizards were -15 points talking the Money Ball and -15 on the glass despite 23 turnovers from Detroit Basketball.   

Motor City moves to 16-16 and the Wiz Kids D.C. falls to 13-22...
