The Detroit Pistons made it seven straight losses with a miserable 103-84 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night.

If you wasted your time watching it, we're sorry.

But for the future, if you want to know whether to give up on the Pistons early on in a game or not, watch this key player and key part of his game to see if it's going early.

The stats are clear about the impact, and you can maybe catch up on sleep some nights if you're smart about it.

Also, do you have any suggestions for coach/president Stan Van Gundy to turn this ship around?

Host Matt Schoch told you that rough days might be ahead for the Pistons and that you might be off the bandwagon and back on again during an up-and-down stretch between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

He was right. A new portion of the season begins on Tuesday with Denver, but here's a look at where things really start for the reeling Pistons, who have lost six straight.

Coach Stan Van Gundy really hit the nail on the head.
