Tigers fans be sure to watch and support the Pistons. 2 years after having the worst record in Pistons franchise history and the worst record in the NBA for 2 straight seasons they now have the 2nd best record in the entire NBA all without most of their top players out injured at 11-2!!!

  1. The Pistons looked as good as any other team in the playoffs last year. They could make a serious run this year

  3. Detroit sports fans are the best sports fans, we’re all family and I love when our teams show support for one another.

  6. Seeing the huge Langdon/Bickerstaff turnaround for the Pistons, the Holmes/Campbell turnaround for the Lions, and the smaller (but still significant) turnaround under Harris/Hinch for the Tigers, it kind of puts the spotlight on Yzerman. Time for the Red Wings to start winning again.

  11. Watching them go from what, last year, was a somewhat top-heavy young team to a still somewhat young but deep squad has been a joy. The last few games they’ve built their winning streak to 9, bringing their record to 11-2, despite missing *literally their entire projected starting 5.*

    Incredible.

    * Jaden Ivey has missed the whole season so far.
    * Tobias Harris has missed the last 7 games.
    * Ausar Thompson has missed the last 3 games.
    * Cade Cunningham has missed the last 2 games.
    * Jalen Duren has missed the last 2 games.
    * Isaiah Stewart returned last night after missing 3 games.

    They beat the Bulls (6-5) and the 76ers (7-5) with a starting lineup of: Daniss Jenkins, Javonte Green, Paul Reed, Ron Holland, and Duncan Robinson

    Daniss Jenkins has been a revelation. I’m starting to believe that they truly have a backup point guard that can keep the team afloat when Cade misses time (granted, against contenders he isn’t going to keep them afloat with the MASH unit).

    The last few games have been an absolute blast, despite resting starters through minor injuries (the sort of stuff they could play through in the playoffs). I haven’t been able to say that about the Pistons bench mobs since at least the Going To Work days.

  12. They looked so good last night! But I’ll be even happier when Cade and Duren are back!

    Sports town DETROIT baby!

  13. Hard to get re-invested in NBA with the betting scandals and the load management. I am a lifelong basketball guy and had season tickets for years. Thought about re-upping two years ago, but it’s criminal, literally, the way some of these games and player availability plays out. Even if the Pistons haven’t been implicated it’s hard to get past the systemic issues the league has.

  15. Does anyone know of any way to watch the Pistons games locally and legally without giving my money to fucking Fanduel? I *hate* the idea of giving them any of my money.

  18. No. Never.

    NBA isn’t a sport. It’s an entertainment industry. Meaning, just like wrestling, they determine who wins and loses.

  19. Watching one of the playoff games last season at the MGM in Detroit after a Tigers game was one of the most stressful yet enjoyable experiences I’ve had in a very long time lmao
