Pistons Drop to 8–4 in 137–117 Loss to Miami

Detroit lost 137–117 to Miami on November 15, falling to 8–4 on its road trip. Coverage cited frontcourt-size problems with Duren out, Cunningham’s 33-point follow-up to his 52-point game, Ausar Thompson’s foul trouble and Robinson’s thigh soreness; newly read pages largely repeat the result, with one adding Detroit’s opening lineup and Bickerstaff’s plan for Robinson to take more threes.
