Pistons fell to the Mavs for their second straight loss after 11 wins

What is going on with the Pistons? they came from eleven wins in a row just to come up with 2 consecutive losses, the last one against the Dallas Mavs, with things looking like that, one team starts to climb, the other one seems to go down the hill.

Final score was 102-86 and this is the first time since November that the Pistons lost two straight games, on that occasion they fell against the Lakers and the the Kings.

"You're going to have nights like this sometimes," said Rasheed Wallace who had 11 rebounds.

On Dallas, Dirk Nowitzki led his team in scoring for the 10^th consecutive time with 23 points, and Erick Dampier, who missed the first 6 games of the season and had to sat down the last two games came back in a big way scoring 14 straight baskets, a Mavericks record while Jason Terry and Jerry Stackhouse ended with 15 points and Devin Harris with 19.

"We're starting to get better every month and that was our goal after we had a suspect month of November and December," said Nowitzki.

Now Dallas has moved to a tie for the Southwest Division lead along with the Spurs which the Pistons play tonight, would that make it the third? We’ll see.
