His first two years were defined by the flurry of moves he made to erase the Detroit Pistons of old. Blake Griffin and Derrick Rose are gone, as are their previous cohort of young players. There are
Detroit — There wasn’t the same anticipation level as the season-opener on Oct. 19, but the Pistons’ final home game of the season resulted in a little bit of theatrics and a career-night for RJ Hampton.

Detroit — Nearly 40 minutes passed after RJ Hampton left the podium following yet another Pistons loss before coach Dwane Casey emerged for his post-game press conference, which was far later than usual.

In their final home game of the season, the Detroit Pistons couldn’t keep pace with a Brooklyn Nets team competing for playoff position. The Nets started and ended the game the same way — hot — and left Little Caesars Arena with a 123-108 win. Brooklyn ended the first quarter with a 29-9 run to
Detroit — Jaden Ivey sat with his head down in the interview room Tuesday night, absorbing both the question and everything that led to it.

Detroit — Isaiah Livers refuses to watch replays of himself getting hurt, especially when it’s an injury he can’t control.
