CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Detroit Pistons could have folded when center Andre Drummond was ejected in the second quarter.Instead, they rallied for a lopsided win with their talented big man in the locker room, routing the tired-looking Charlotte Hornets 112-89 on Tuesday night.Harris scored 24 points and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Marcus Morris each had 18 points to lead the Pistons. Ish Smith added 13 points, including two coast-to-coast layups to ignite his team in the third quarter.The Pistons outscored the Hornets by 23 after Drummond was ejected for a flagrant-2 foul when officials ruled he elbowed Roy Hibbert in the head. Drummond laughed and shook his head as he walked off the floor, flabbergasted that he had been ejected.I thought that was a key part of the game right there, Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. We were down after the play so to come back and be up three at the half was good.Drummond said he didnt do it on purpose.I dont make the rules, Drummond said. I just play the game. They felt that I had done something maliciously. Everybody who knows me knows thats the type player I am. At the end of the day, it wasnt my call so I took the consequences and walked off the floor.Said Harris: It says a lot about our team, but most importantly about guys like Aron (Baynes) and Jon (Leuer) to fill in for that role and be productive and bring the energy that he had when he was playing when he was out there.Kemba Walker had 23 points for the Hornets, who were playing their fourth game in five nights.Hornets coach Steve Clifford refused to use that as an excuse.We can come in here and do the preverbal its five (games) in seven (nights), but if you do that, to me, you have the wrong expectations of what our team should be, Clifford saidThe Pistons hadnt played since Saturday and looked much fresher throughout the game.Detroit took a 10-point lead into the fourth quarter after Caldwell-Pope knocked down a pair of 3-pointers late in the third. Things got sloppy from there with the Hornets turning the ball over frequently on bad passes, and the game quickly turned into a blowout.Hornets center Cody Zeller said there will always be tough nights, but we need to find ways to win those.TIP INSPistons: The win snapped a three-game road losing streak. ... The Pistons had a season-high 12 3-pointers.Hornets: Walker sent Smith falling to the floor in the second quarter when he faked a drive then stepped back to drain a 3-pointer. ... Walker has scored 20 or more points in 15 of the Charlottes 18 games this season. ... Charlotte fell to 5-5 at home.DRUMMOND EJECTEDThere is a history between Drummond and Hibbert. Hibbert said back in 2013 he was no longer a fan of Drummond after claiming he talked too much trash.CHARLOTTE TROUBLESClifford said hes concerned about two things -- the Hornets being 5-5 at home and 1/3 on the tail end of back-to-backs.If those things continue to happen then we certainly are not going to be in the position where we need to be, Clifford said.SMITH HOMECOMINGSmith is a Charlotte native, so he enjoyed getting a win against the Hornets.It was good to see my family and friends and coaches and mentors who helped me along the way, Smith said. But its a business trip. Well be back in a week and it wont be any easier.LAMB HURT AGAINCharlottes Jeremy Lamb left on the first possession of the fourth quarter after banging knees with another player.

Rob Nelson of ESPN Stats & Information revisits the worst bad beats from the weekends gambling action.Note: Closing lines are courtesy of Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook and pick percentages are via Wunderdog Sports.FridayArkansas State Red Wolves at Utah State AggiesClosing line: Utah State -9A slow start and an ugly finish ended up costing bettors who took the underdogs in this one.Arkansas State turned it over on two of its first four possessions, falling behind 24-0 at halftime. In the second half, the Red Wolves got back in it by scoring touchdowns on each of their first two possessions. But all that did was set up eventual disappointment for the 31 percent who took them to cover the nine points.Trailing 27-14 entering the fourth, Arkansas States first three drives in the quarter all reached Utah State territory. Those possessions turned out to be a field goal, interception and another field goal (after having the ball second-and-goal from the 1-yard line). That second field goal made the score 27-20 with 7:28 left in the game. Utah State proceeded to go on 13-play, 91-yard drive, which ended with a Tonny Lindsey 1-yard touchdown with 29 seconds left. The touchdown came on first-and-goal with Arkansas State out of timeouts.Final score: Utah State 34, Arkansas State 20 (Utah State covers)SaturdayLiberty Flames at SMU MustangsClosing line: SMU -14.5An overwhelming 92 percent of the action was on SMU to cover the 14.5-point spread. As for the 8 percent who took Liberty, this would turn out to be an ending to forget.Liberty trailed 19-14 with less than a minute to go in the game. At this point, it was hard to imagine a scenario in which the Flames didnt cover. SMUs Josh Williams pushed the margin to eight after his field goal with 47 seconds left. Two plays later, that unimaginable scenario was realized. Libertys Stephen Calvert was picked off by Jordan Wyatt, who instead of going down, returned it 34 yards for a touchdown. The Williams PAT put SMU up 15 with 18 seconds left, which covered the spread by a half-point.Final score: SMU 29, Liberty 14 (SMU covers)New Mexico Lobos at Rutgers Scarlet KnightsClosing line: Rutgers -7.5You couldnt have asked for a better start if you took New Mexico +7.5, as the Lobos jumped out to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter. That big lead didnt last long, though, as Rutgers scored the next 31 points and led by 10 entering the fourth quarter.Early in the final quarter, Richard McQuarleys touchdown run gave New Mexico its first points in over 33 minutes of game time, and cut thhe deficit to three.dddddddddddd A pair of Rutgers field goals pushed the margin up to nine, as New Mexico now needed a score on its final possession to cover. The Lobos reached the Scarlet Knights 10-yard line, but ended up having to settle for a field goal attempt. Jason Sanders -- who was a perfect 3-for-3 on field goals in 2016 -- missed the 32-yard attempt with 43 seconds left. Rutgers ran out the clock and gave the 32 percent on New Mexico a bad beat they wont soon forget.Final score: Rutgers 37, New Mexico 28 (Rutgers covers)SundayIndianapolis Colts at Denver BroncosClosing line: Broncos -6 (-6.5 for most of week), over/under 47The Broncos officially closed as a six-point favorite, but the line was 6.5 for most of the week. By the end of the game, it didnt matter what number you had if you bet the Colts.With two minutes left in the game, the Broncos led 23-20, and faced a third-and-1 from the Colts 17-yard-line. A first down and Denver could run out of the clock, while giving those on the Colts and/or the under, a winning bet. But C.J. Anderson was stuffed for no gain, and instead of going for it on fourth down, Gary Kubiak took the three points and put the game in the hands of his defense. That turned out to be a great decision for the Broncos, but not so much for the 47 percent who took the Colts to cover.On Indys first play of the possession, Von Miller stripped Andrew Luck (who was a perfect 4-0 ATS in his career vs. Denver entering Sunday), and fellow linebacker Shane Ray scooped it up and returned it for a touchdown -- that one play cost both those who took the Colts and the under.Final score: Broncos 34, Colts 20 (Broncos cover and game goes over)Honorable mentionSouth Carolina State Bulldogs at Clemson TigersClosing line: Clemson -53.5If you took Clemson to cover the 53.5-point spread, you clearly felt that South Carolina State couldnt compete. And you were right. But unfortunately, after the Tigers led 45-0 at halftime, both sides agreed to play 12-minute quarters in the second half.In the betting world, a football game is only official if it goes at least 55 minutes. South Carolina State and Clemson would play just 54 minutes, costing those who took the Tigers -- who eventually won by 59 -- a winning bet.Note: Some books paid out winning tickets on Clemson and paid out South Carolina State as no action.Final score: Clemson 59, South Carolina State 0 (No action) ' ' '
