If the Detroit Pistons’ current five-game road trip will ultimately define their season, they couldn’t have asked for a better start. Coming off of consecutive losses for the first time in more than a month, the Pistons handled their business on the road against the Houston Rockets 107-96. The Pistons won courtesy of a dominant

Everybody loves a matchup between the number one and number two picks from the same draft class, but as you move further from the year of that draft, the individual matchup doesn’t mean as much as it did. When both of these teams were not any good, I think the Jalen Green-Cade Cunningham matchup meant

The Detroit Pistons were always in the game against the Phoenix Suns, but nobody was ever able to put their stamp on the game. The Suns had no such issues, with Kevin Durant scoring 38, including 30 in the second half, and Devin Booker scoring 35 in the 125-121 win over the Pistons. Cade Cunningham

The Detroit Pistons are playing early today, an entree before the main course of the Detroit Lions faceoff with the Washington Commanders in the NFC playoffs. A full day of Detroit sports hopefully means we will get to enjoy a raucous crowd. It’s also the latest homecoming to Grand Rapids native and Detroit superfan Devin

The Pistons loss to the Pacers does not diminish the fantastic start to the year, and the season in general, that this team has had. Blake and Wes discuss what went wrong in that game, both on offense and defense. They break down why the Pacers’ defensive strategy may be something we see deployed against

Seeing the Detroit Pistons stage a huge comeback is becoming a regular feature of the 2024-25 season. That is because the roster is much-improved and Cade Cunningham has taken the leap to All-Star (and even All-NBA) status. The issue is that to stage a huge comeback, you have to fall way behind. That is also

Cade Cunningham is rightly getting notice for a leap and likely All-Star nod, but the reason the Detroit Pistons are entering the break above .500 is all the help around Cunningham. Veteran shooters Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway Jr. have provided much-needed spacing to allow Cunningham to work. And when defenses decide to collapse on

The Detroit Pistons are one of the hottest teams in the league. They’ve won ten of their last twelve games, and are attempting to solidify themselves as a playoff contender as we hit the midway point of the season. Tonight, they’ll play host to the Indiana Pacers, who have won seven of their last nine

The last time the Detroit Pistons played the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden, Cade Cunningham went off for a 15-assist triple-double in a 120-111 victory. In that game, the Knicks were missing sharpshooting center Karl-Anthony Towns. Well, KAT played tonight and scored 26 points. Every Knicks starter played big minutes tonight, but it

Two of the NBA’s biggest success stories this season square off at Madison Square Garden as the Detroit Pistons are hosted by the New York Knicks. After winning 50 games, the Knicks did not rest on their laurels this offseason. Instead, they swung huge trades for Karl-Anthony Towns from Minnesota and Mikal Bridges from Brooklyn.

The play of the Detroit Pistons this season is surpassing even the most optimistic Pistons fans’ expectations heading into the year. After winning 14 games last year under He-Who-Should-Not-Be-Named, Detroit is now a .500 team roughly 40 games into the season with their eyes on the play-in. DraftKings has the Pistons making the play-in set

We’re quickly approaching the NBA All-Star Weekend in San Francisco. Your Detroit Pistons are a surprising 20-19, a mediocre record to most teams but a true breakthrough for a franchise coming off one of the worst seasons in modern NBA history. A big, and, let me repeat, BIG, reason for this jump is the play

Cade Cunningham secured his seventh triple-double of the season in the Detroit Pistons’ 123-114 win over the Toronto Raptors. Cunningham had 17 of Detroit’s season-high 35 assists to go with 22 points and 10 rebounds. One of the reasons the game remained close until the final stretch of the fourth quarter, however, is that Cunningham

Cade Cunningham will be an All Star, the Pistons are nearly .500 on the season and young forwards Ron Holland and Ausar Thompson have both flashed this past week. Add in the Lions earning the #1 seed, and you’ve got a wonderful week of Detroit sports! Blake and Wes are here to break it all

The Detroit Pistons are 19-19 and winners of eight of their past 10 games. They have not just rebounded after a franchise-worst 14-win season, they are firmly in the mix for the play-in and playoffs in the Eastern Conference. The team also has $14 million in available cap space, and is the only NBA team

The Detroit Pistons were a step slow and discombobulated on both ends of the floor for the first 80% of the game. Cade Cunningham decided to take over in the fourth quarter, giving his team a chance to tie it on the last possession, but a Malik Beasley three was off the mark and Detroit

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
