Join Wes and Blake Thursday after the Pistons-Pelicans game for the newest episode where we’ll recap

The Pistons and Thunder are both very young. They are also both playing really well in the early parts of the season. Yes, it has only been 3 games, but it hasn’t been luck that they both enter this game with a 2-1 record. The Thunder are coming off a blowout loss to the Denver

The Detroit Pistons’ 2-1 start may feel a bit abnormal, especially when you look closer at who the driving forces are in those wins. Looking at the breakaway win against the Bulls, for example, Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren each finished with over 20 points, adding 10 assists and 10 rebounds respectively. Three of Cunningham’s

The season is young, but you’d have to be blind (or simply not watching) not to notice the Detroit Pistons’ marked improvement and intensified effort on the defensive end of the floor. The Pistons (1-1) held the Miami Heat to just 40.2% shooting in a one-point loss and then held the Charlotte Hornets to just

It’s fall, Pistons fans. The leaves are changing, the Lions are winning and Jaden Ivey appears to be slotted as the 6th man to start the season — just as I’m sure all of us Detroit fans expected. To help guide us through what is sure to be a tumultuous season of Pistons basketball, Detroit

It was over. Until it wasn’t. Trailing by 21 early in the fourth quarter, the Detroit Pistons looked down and out in their season opener against the Miami Heat on Wednesday. It was a familiar sight after last season’s 17-win slog. The different tonight? Cade Cunningham. Detroit’s do-it-all star looked like one, scoring 30 points

The NBA regular season is here, which means it’s time for future bets! While we’re all feeling bearish on the future of the Detroit Pistons, that doesn’t mean we can’t throw some coin down on the future doings of other teams and players in the NBA. Futures bets are simple: you decide who you think

Regardless of your thoughts on the current status of the team, opening night is an exciting time for everybody. Whatever you imagine of your favorite team in your wildest dreams can still be reality until they step on the floor for the first time. The Pistons currently have a better record than 2 teams, what

The Detroit Pistons announced that veterans Bojan Bogdanovic and Monte Morris will miss the beginning of the NBA season with a right calf strain and right quad strain, respectively, the team announced. Neither veteran played during the team’s preseason action. Bogdanovic will be reevaluated in four weeks and Morris will be reevaluated in three weeks

I’ve long asked myself the same question as it relates to the Detroit Pistons. What’s the plan? I know what my plan is — how I’d do things — but I’m not Troy Weaver. Entering his fourth year GM, Weaver has done a lot, but it sure doesn’t feel like we’re any closer to this

With the regular season tipping off Wednesday night in Miami, the Detroit Pistons are set to embark on a prove-it campaign for the organization. The pieces have been assembled … let’s say methodically — over the years, and now with a critical mass of young talent and complementary veterans, it’s time to show some actual

Just before the new NBA season begins, the Detroit Pistons are finalizing the team’s roster around the ends. Detroit plans to convert Stanley Umude to a two-way contract, according to a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic.

As an appetizer for the Detroit Pistons final preseason game, the Motor City Cruise announced that the team has acquired Chandler Vaudrin from the Cleveland Charge in exchange for Trayvon Palmer. Vaudrin signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers to join their preseason roster in 2021 before suffering a torn ACL in Summer

After waiting a week between games two and three, the Detroit Pistons are playing a preseason finale on the latter half of a back-to-back. I’m not sure how we got here, but it is where we find ourselves. If I were a betting man, that would lead me to think that we might see less

Following a pair of preseason wins against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Jack and Wes will take a look at the positives and negatives through Detroits three preseason games.

The Detroit Pistons haven’t played since Oct. 12 and while they are finally suiting up again for preseason game three of four, it will not be broadcast on TV in the Detroit viewing area. The game against the Oklahoma City Thunder will be available on League Pass and in the OKC viewing market, and there

I’m worried. I’m scared. I’m pessimistic. Part of the objective of writing this piece is that I hope to be able to look at it three months from now, six months from now, or a year from now, and have a good, deep laugh. If I want to truly understand how wrong I was, I
