Aldridge too much for the Pistons as they go down 105-100
All-Star snub LaMarcus Aldridge scored 36 points, leading the Portland Trail Blazers to their fourth straight win, 105-100 over the Pistons.
Aldridge went 12 of 17 from the floor and hit all but one of his 13 free-throw attempts.
Ben Gordon scored 18 points and Tracy McGrady had 16 for the Pistons. Detroit’s bench outscored its starters 57-43.
Head Coach John Kuester stayed with his reserves throughout the fourth quarter, and it paid off when two straight Bynum steals led to a 95-93 lead with 1:48 to play.
Daye missed a contested tying 3-pointer with 23 seconds left on a blown play. Kuester wanted Gordon to take a two-pointer, but didn’t give the players a clear second option.
