"Best" and "Worst" awards: 76ers vs. Pistons

This is my look at some of the best and worst performances from the 76ers' 94-83 victory over the Detroit Pistons Wednesday night at Wells Fargo Center.

Best performance:  This goes to Sixers reserve power forward Thomas Robinson on night when Pistons point guard Reggie Jackson posted his first career triple-double (11 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists). But Jackson shot a horrible 4-for-17 from the field. Meanwhile, Robinsons scored 12 points on 6-for-9 shooting. He also finished with six rebounds, three blocks and steal in 16 minutes, 13 seconds of action.

Worst performance:  I had to give this to Robert Covington.  The Sixers small forward shot 1-for-6 from the field to finish with three points.

Best defensive performance:  Nerlens Noel wins this award after finishing with three blocks and a steal. The Sixers rookie center also had 11 points and four rebounds before leaving the game with 4 minutes, 27 seconds left in third quarter due to right foot contusion.

Best performance in a losing effort: I couldn't bring myself to give this to Jackson. He looked out of sync even though he finished with a triple-double.  Shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope gets this award after finishing with a game-high 20 points and eight rebounds. The second-year veteran shot 7-for-16 from the field and made 5 of 6 foul shots.

Worst statistic: This award goes to the Pistons shooting from the field, making 29 of 88 shots (33 percent).

Best statistic: I'm giving this to the Pistons making 17 of 19 foul shots.

Worst of the Worst:  This award goes to the Pistons struggles in the paint. They were outscored in there, 40-20, while missing 28 of 38 shots in that area.
