If you thought there was an end in sight for the Pistons in regards to their early-season schedule, you thought wrong. Granted, a team that was supposed to be near the bottom of the standings was bound to have any schedule look difficult because there aren’t a lot of teams in the league they are

This will be the third installment of “Film Don’t Lie” looking at Dwane Casey and his offensive sets and actions. If you missed out on the first two, I took a look at what we were seeing in the preseason and then checked in again after we had seen Cade Cunningham in just one game.

On episode 68 of the Motor City Hoops podcast I bring you my instant recap and reactions to the Pistons Tuesday night game vs the Heat. I will give my overall outlook on the game and a rundown of what we saw from the Pistons. I will also give my biggest takeaway, player of the

The Detroit Pistons have been outscored 70-33 in the past two fourth quarters. It’s no surprise that the team has lost both contests even as they entered the final frame with sizable leads in both games. In Sunday’s contest against the Los Angeles Lakers, the LeBron James-Isaiah Stewart scuffle and ejections weakened Detroit’s defense and

Jimmy Butler is on fire, Tyler Herro is scorching off the bench, and Bam Adebayo can do a little bit of everything. Oh yeah, and the Miami Heat also managed to add the two-way game of Kyle Lowry this offseason. And the Pistons will be starting … Trey Lyles and Cory Joseph. Jerami Grant and

On episode 67 of the Motor City Hoops Podcast, I am joined by Omari Sankofa, Detroit Pistons beat writer for The Detroit Free Press. We start off the episode discussing the hottest topic around the Pistons (and NBA) which is the altercation between Isaiah Stewart and LeBron James on Sunday night. We then dive into

After an eventful game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Detroit Pistons will look to bounce back from a tough loss as they play host to the Miami Heat. The Heat remade their roster a bit in the offseason and have gotten off to a great start. The Pistons have had a rough

It hasn’t even been one month since Cade Cunningham made his Detroit Pistons debut against the Orlando Magic. Yet, Piston fans have already experienced the ups and downs of having a prized rookie on the team. After a sub-par first two games, Piston fans were in complete damage control, shielding ridiculous claims from aggregators and

Killian Hayes will sit for the next two games at least to give the young point guard’s sprained thumb a chance to heal, the team announced Monday. Hayes originally sprained the left thumb Oct. 28 against the Philadelphia 76ers and had attempted to play through the pain. Seemingly in every game since then there has

That was ugly. Let’s start with that. No one wants to see what we saw at Little Ceasars Arena when the Detroit Pistons faced the Los Angeles Lakers game on Saturday evening. Quick recap: on a free-throw box out LeBron James’s hand came into violent contact with Isaiah Stewart’s face. Was it intentional from LeBron?

Hey everyone. This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week’s episode we’re talking about your 4-11 Detroit Pistons. Ben Gulker and I talk about Killian Hayes’ thumb injury, Hamidou Diallo’s return to the rotation, and wonder aloud if Cade Cunningham is already the best player on the Pistons. So, the problem

This game got out to a blistering start, so the final score was not a surprise at all. The Lakers were pushing the pace and the Pistons had to play fast to match their pace. Early on, Cade Cunningham made a couple of very good defensive plays on LeBron James with the help of Cory

Not that the Los Angeles Lakers are necessarily a championship contender or one of the best teams in the NBA, but they can still be a very good, very dangerous team. With LeBron James back and Anthony Davis in the middle, they can inflict pain. And the last time an overmatched team like the Detroit

Since rookie Cade Cunningham has entered the fray this month, the Detroit Pistons have been a team on the rise. Now, that rise hasn’t been anything to bat an eye at, but the team we’re watching now is one that seems to be figuring out little things every game. Lebron James and the Los Angeles

On episode 66 of the Motor City Hoops podcast, I bring you my instant recap and reactions to the Detroit Pistons on Friday night game vs the Golden State Warriors. I will give my overall outlook on the game and a rundown of what we saw from the Pistons. I will also give my biggest

On the second night of a back to back, Golden State decided to rest key players; Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Otto Porter and Andre Igoudala. For those who bought tickets to this game, I feel for you. However, without their MVP candidate and defensive anchor, the Warriors were fielding a very beatable line-up for the

I have bad news for anyone hoping to get their one in-person look at the majesty of Steph Curry tonight at Little Caesars Arena. Steve Kerr took one look at his team’s matchup against the Detroit Pistons and thought to himself “hmmmm, this is a cheat day.” The team with the NBA’s best record is

The Detroit Pistons are 1-1 on their 5-game homestand and are coming off of an impressive win over the Indiana Pacers. Wednesday’s contest against the Pacers was a hard-fought defensive game. Tonight’s game against the Golden State Warriors figures to showcase much more scoring, at least on the Warriors’ side of things. It might not

As alluded to in the 10-Game Progress Report article, Jerami Grant’s game needs further time under the microscope. He continues to be one of the top scorers on the Detroit Pistons, but he also has not shown considerable growth since his breakout year last season. He has not been bad, per se. The issue is

Another week, another Ben Simmons to the Detroit Pistons trade rumor. Whether it’s a “where there is smoke, there is fire” situation or whether it’s just the shambling, rotting corpse of an exploratory call from several months ago is anybody’s guess. This time, as in rumors’ past, the talks are centered around former Sixer and
