Detroit Bad Boys

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

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

It’s fitting that the Detroit Pistons are facing the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight, Not only is it Detroit and GM Troy Weaver facing off against his former organization, it is Cade Cunningham going against Chet Holmgren. Or as ESPN might like to refer to it, the NBA’s 74th best player (Cunningham) going against the NBA’s

Brendan Malone, an NBA stalwart for more than 30 years, including his most memorable with the Bad Boy Detroit Pistons, has died at the age of 81. Malone won two titles with the Detroit Pistons as an assistant coach under Chuck Daley in 1989 and 1990. He was part of the staff who crafted the

The question has always been when and not if rookie Ausar Thompson would be forcing his way into the startling lineup for the Detroit Pistons. The No. 5 overall pick from Overtime Elite has showcased a full arsenal of skills in his brief time in Summer League and in training camp for the Pistons. He

The Detroit Pistons are an imperfect roster, but if you had to try and identify its biggest flaw, you might point to Detroit’s roster of big men. Each player is skilled, and some have special abilities not shared by anyone else on the roster. But they also have shortcomings in some form, whether it be

The Detroit Pistons didn’t make any splashes on Media Day. The organization seemed determined not to, in fact. The players talked about growing their games, competing for roles, and excitement about playing for new coach Monty Williams. Nobody made any bold proclamations, nobody seemed discontent despite perhaps finding themselves on the outside looking in at

The Pistons Pulse is brought to you by The Detroit Free Press and is co hosted by Bryce Simon of MotorCityHoops and Omari Sankofa II, Detroit Pistons beat writer for The Detroit Free Press. Omari and I are back this week and so is Detroit Pistons basketball, sort of. It is just a taste but

The Detroit Pistons are entering media day fresh off what might be the organization’s least active offseason in franchise history. Since free agency began, I believe this would mark the first season Detroit signed no FAs to its 15-man roster. The only changes are two young additions in the draft — Ausar Thompson and Marcus

The opportunity was there for Isaiah Livers to seize a major role off the bench with the Detroit Pistons as the forward enters his third year in the NBA, but once again injuries will sidetrack those plans. Livers, who has dealt with various injuries throughout his collegiate and pro career, will be sidelined for six

The Detroit Pistons officially announced their full training camp roster with no surprising additions or absences for what became a largely untrained roster compared to last year’s team. The roster includes 14 players on guaranteed contracts — Marvin Bagley, Bojan Bogdanovic, Alec Burks, Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duren, Joe Harris, Killian Hayes, Jaden Ivey, Isaiah Livers,

No. No, thank you. Just no. I appreciate the thought, but not a chance. I don’t care what the screenshot looks like or how much your four-team, 17-player trade makes the Detroit Pistons better, I preemptively reject any proposed trade that winds up with Jerami Grant back in a Pistons uniform. I kindly would prefer
