AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Andre Drummond and the Detroit Pistons turned what was supposed to be a matchup of two of the NBAs best young centers into a blowout.Drummond had 18 points and 15 rebounds, while Hassan Whiteside finished with six points and eight rebounds as the Pistons routed the Miami Heat 107-84 on Wednesday night.Drummond also blocked four shots and had four steals.I know he wasnt happy with himself after our last game, but whatever he did to get ready tonight worked, Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. He did a hell of a job. That might be the best defensive game hes played here.Whiteside had set a franchise record with 10-plus rebounds in each of the seasons first 13 games.I just wasnt closing out, and he got some rebounds, Whiteside said. They got some offensive rebounds, and I even knocked one into the wrong basket. It was that kind of night.Detroit snapped a four-game losing streak. The Pistons, who got 22 points from Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, are 6-2 at home and 1-7 on the road.We were desperate for a win, Marcus Morris said.

Our offense wasnt there and we didnt make an effort on defense.Miamis Udonis Haslem got into a confrontation with a Pistons fan with 5:11 left in the game. The pair had a face-to-face shouting match during a timeout until Haslem was pulled away by teammates.

Hes the type of player that will hurt you if you dont pay attention when hes on the floor.Detroit shot 68.1 percent in the paint in the half, and kept things going at the start of the third, with Drummond dunking on the first possession. The Pistons led 86-64 going into the fourth.Miami never threatened in a final quarter that saw both coaches empty their benches.I dont know what just happened, Johnson said.

CHASKA, Minn. -- The first question Rickie Fowler was asked at the Ryder Cup was as good an indication as any of how his year has gone.Can you talk a little about facial hair in golf and your view of it?Fowler is one of golfs it boys, part of young generation of tour players who hang out and vacation together and are as knowledgeable about fashion as they are about flop shots. Theyre masterful at brand-building and are all over social media. Theyre comfortable in the spotlight, engaging and almost always in demand, even when they dont win consistently, which is another way of summing up Fowlers rocky season.He won in January at Abu Dhabi against a field that rivaled most PGA Tour events. A month later, he blew a two-shot lead in Phoenix with two holes left and lost in a playoff to Hideki Matsuyama and his tableau for the rest of his year was set. Fowler subsequently blew leads in Charlotte and New York, making him 0 for 4 when he held the 54-hole lead on tour and eventually costing him both an automatic qualifying berth for the Ryder Cup and a slot in the season-ending Tour Championship.It was a stunning reversal of fortunes, considering the momentum Fowler was building. He finished in the top five of all four majors in 2014, and won twice -- including The Players Championship, golfs unofficial fifth major -- only a year ago. Part of that skid could be the result of fatigue, especially the last two months or so, when Fowler traveled to Rio de Janeiro for the Olympics and wound up playing on the road eight out nine weeks.Im feeling better about the game, having those two weeks off than I would have getting ready for the ... Tour Championship, he said. I was able to go relax, rest, recover and tthen use the week to practice.ddddddddddddIm rested and ready to go, he added a moment later. That was big for me after the summer we had.Somewhere in between, Fowler found time to grow a mustache in solidarity with pal Justin Thomas that they dubbed playoff `staches. When his postseason bid fell away, Fowler planned to leave on the facial hair to support J.T. through the playoffs. But then he had to film a video, and off came the mustache.While Fowler and his pals have eschewed the intimidation tactics and cut-throat approach to competition that was part of so many of the tool boxes the last generation carried around, the temptation to do so could prove tempting this weekend. The Ryder Cup is easily the most partisan event in the gentlemanly game, especially since Europe has won the last three and eight of the last 10. And almost on cue, some Europeans have already turned U.S. captain Davis Loves description of his squad as the best team, maybe, ever assembled into a rallying cry.Fowler insists he wont take the bait.It doesnt change for me. I may not be able to talk for everyone, but I dont feel that anyone is acting any differently toward each other, whether its between team or opposing teams, he said. Its an accomplishment just to be here.This will be Fowlers third try and some validation is in order. He was a captains pick this year and in 2010 and has yet to win a match in four-ball, foursomes or singles, losing three and halving three others.I dont think theres any trick to it, he said. At the end of the day, youve just got to go out and beat those other guys.
