The emotional tides are beginning to take a toll on the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons came up short 133-119 in an intense Central Division collision against the Indiana Pacers. Detroit was forced to play without backup center Isaiah Stewart for most of the contest after getting ejected midway through the second quarter.

Isaiah Stewart's night came to an abrupt end during the Detroit Pistons' 133-119 loss to the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday.

In the second quarter, Stewart shoved Pacers center Thomas Bryant as the two got ready to go for a rebound. The officials quickly blew play dead to review the call, and whether it was deemed worth of a flagrant. Bryant got up and tried to approach Stewart, although a mob of Pacers kept that from happening.
