The Detroit Pistons can be tough to watch these days, but there’s always something to watch. Facing the Chicago Bulls on Sunday, the Pistons did what they needed to do: lose the game, falling 108-96.

With tonight’s matchup against Chicago Bulls, The Detroit Pistons enter the last stretch of the 2020-21 season. They will play them all at home with a fair amount of off days in between, which should help their squad full of intriguing youngsters, whose performance at this stage of their careers might be disrupted by schedule

The Detroit Pistons had Jerami Grant and Mason Plumlee back in the lineup, but they still had no answers for MVP candidate Joel Embiid in Detroit’s 118-104 loss on the road Saturday night.

Anthony Tolliver is back, baby! Perhaps we’ll only get to spy him rooting on teammates, but considering Philly could be up by 30 before halftime, this could be a game of heavy minutes for the end of the Sixers’ bench. For Detroit, the Pistons look primed to run out Jearmi Grant and Mason Plumlee against

Jerami Grant and a host of Detroit Pistons veterans are available against the Philadelphia 76ers, perhaps for one final run as the season winds down. Grant has missed 11 of Detroit’s past 16 games, but he’s likely suiting up tonight. Grant is listed as questionable and is joined in that designation by fellow vets Cory

Okay, I need to admit something. I’m so old that I remember the rebuild the Detroit Pistons went through after the Bad Boys ended their run. The departure of respective guys from the championships teams (James Edwards, Vinnie Johnson, John Salley), the acquisition of playable veterans (Terry Mills, Olden Polynice, Alvin Robertson, Darrell Walker, Orlando

The Detroit Pistons showed again that they can play very well, especially when the opponent doesn’t bother to show up. In a 111-97 win over Memphis Grizzlies, the team took the lead in the second quarter and never give it back. Motown’s youngsters were sharp down the stretch to seal the deal, making Pistons fans

The end (of the regular season) is near. However, that is just the start for the Detroit Pistons.

The Detroit Pistons face the Memphis Grizzlies tonight, aka the team it probably makes the most sense to model a rebuild around.

Lazarus Jackson (@lazchance) and PD Web (@abovethebreak3) talk about the Detroit Pistons’ options at the top of the 2021 NBA Draft, and the progression of the Pistons’ rookies from the 2020 NBA Draft.

Jerami Grant is set to return to action against the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday, according to a Yahoo Sports report.

In this week’s episode of Inside The Cylinder, Matt and I take a look at the race to the bottom of the NBA standings.

Outside of tracking lottery odds, the only real interesting reason to watch the Detroit Pistons the rest of the season is to see the young guys stand out from time to time.
