The Brooklyn Nets must’ve realized they weren’t going to beat the blazing-hot Detroit Pistons because they decided to sit 10 PLAYERS as they’re now doing their best to Capture the Flagg. Last year, good teams used to rest their players against Detroit because they still were going to win – now, bad teams are resting

The Pistons haven’t made things easy along the way, but they have finally gotten to .500 this late in the season since 2019 when Blake Griffin was an All-NBA 3rd teamer. It has been a long time coming for a franchise that has sunken to the lowest lows since that season. The Pistons are not
Early in the first half, the Detroit Pistons looked like they wanted to do anything other than play competitive basketball. Lazy offense and inattentive defense allowed the visiting Portland Trail Blazers to build a 22-point lead with 9:04 remaining in the second quarter. But the Pistons were able to complete a huge comeback, 118-115. they
The Portland Trailblazers were among the few teams the Detroit Pistons had a smidge of success against last year, splitting the season series one apiece. Thankfully, these aren’t the same Pistons, but unfortunately (for those in Rip City), these are the same Blazers that dropped 61 games a season ago. While the Pistons have the
Anthony Edwards scored a Little Caesars Arena-record 53 points, but you can’t win a game by yourself, and the Detroit Pistons used an all-around team effort to gut out the win 119-105 over the Minnesota Timberwolves in front of a raucous crowd. Cade Cunningham did his best to go punch-for-punch with Edwards, both by scoring
It’s impossible not to feel for Jaden Ivey. Not only has he suffered a traumatic injury, but it comes during possibly the best stretch of basketball he’s played in the NBA. Wes and Blake discuss how this injury is not as bad as it could have been. They break down how the team ventured to
Anthony Edwards is licking his wounds after struggling through two Minnesota Timberwolves losses against the NBA’s elite teams in the Boston Celtics and Oklahoma City Thunder. The Wolves were supposed to be an ascendant team on that same championship-level tier, but they have scuffled to just a 17-16 record so far this season. Star wing
In their first game without Jaden Ivey since suffering a broken leg, the Detroit Pistons took on the Charlotte Hornets in Little Caesars Arena without their two top dawgs: LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller. JB Bickerstaff mentioned before the game that Ivey’s starting spot will be fluid based on matchups and who’s playing well –
Sometimes you wish you could put the season on hold whenever a significant injury happens. In the case of the Pistons, that significant injury is a broken fibula for their rising star guard, Jaden Ivey. But alas, you cannot pause the season so you must move on and keep the daily grind of the NBA
It looked bad. It felt bad. It’s confirmed bad. ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey sustained a broken left fibula in the team’s win over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. If you missed it, Orlando’s Cole Anthony dove into Ivey’s legs as he tried to get to a loose ball —
Jaden Ivey sustained what appears to be a significant injury to his lower leg/ankle in the Detroit Pistons’ 105-96 win over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday at Little Caesars Arena. Orlando’s Cole Anthony dove for a loose ball and the full weight of his body collided with Ivey’s planted left leg with 10:07 remaining in
The Detroit Pistons won the game, but they might have lost something far more significant. While Detroit survived a stream of second-half turnovers and an energized Orlando Magic team in a 105-96 win on Wednesday at Little Caesars Arena, they lost rising young guard Jaden Ivey to an apparent serious leg injury. Cole Anthony collided
The Detroit Pistons have already matched last year’s meager total of 14 wins. On Jan. 1, they can win their 15th game and officially be better than they were last season. Getting the win against the Orlando Magic would be all the sweeter. They are a good, young team dealing with their own injury issues,
