Charlie V helps Pistons rout Sixers and snap Losing Streak

Charlie V helps Pistons rout Sixers and snap Losing Streak

After years of being championship contenders, the Detroit Pistons had two major falls. The first was last season, when the team's wins decreased by 20 games. Despite the major drop-off, the Pistons were still a playoff team. However, they were no challenge for the rising contenders, Cleveland Cavaliers. The Pistons were swept from the playoffs last year and they sought to rebuild.

Having a lot of cap space, the Pistons were able to lure Ben Gordon away from the Bulls and sign the emerging Charlie Villanueva. Both players have signed big money, long-term contracts. Despite Gordon and Villanueva being good complimentary players, they have proven that they cannot emerge as stars. The floor is all to themselves in Detroit and they have simply added to the disappointment.

But, for one night, that was not the case. On the road against an equally-disappointing Philadelphia 76ers team, the Pistons dominated. For one night, Charlie Villanueva played the way that Joe Dumars envisioned and he was able to score 25 points as the Pistons played their most complete game of the season. It was simply a case of too little too late because Detroit is still one of the worst teams in the NBA with a record of 24-53, even after the big win. Knowing where they are, all that the Pistons could do is celebrate and they enjoyed this victory.

Had this game been five years ago, it would have been a marquee game, but times change. The final score was 124-103 and the loss dropped Philadelphia to a record of 26-51.
