Pistons' head coach Michael Curry believes that the team has taken a step back defensively through the first twelve games of the season.
"I think a lot of things we are doing, we are ahead of schedule of where I thought," Curry said after Friday's loss to Boston. "And a couple of things, I'm not as pleased with.
"Defensively, I think we took a step back from training camp."
At the same point last season, the Pistons were allowing 95.25 points per game. Currently, they are allowing 95.83.
