The Pistons were averaging a league-worst 84 points while allowing 94.5 entering Monday's night's game against the Bulls.

Max Effort
Jason Maxiell has always impressed his Pistons coaches with his trustworthiness and consistency of effort, even as his roles have fluctuated from starter to outside the rotation.
