Deleterious

So much of what Detroit does starts with their defense. Losing Thompson really hurt that and is a big story going forward if he has to miss significant time. Not so much for the regular season, but it's a deal if he starts to miss playoff games. Cade has to be better. 26 points on 26 shots is pretty bad. Funny thing is, he shot well from three but everywhere else wasn't good. His defense wasn't very good either and he took a few dumb fouls. Insert the Cade needs help plea here. LeVert and Jenkins were terrible. 20 and 14 minutes combined, and they produced 0 points. The defense on Wemby was bad. They fouled him 20 feet from the basket a good 7 or 8 times. He isn't Steph, he doesn't shoot that well where you have to pressure him defensively 20+ feet from the basket. You could probably make an argument you want him shooting that shot. Save your fouls for the times he is in the paint.

Duren never came back after his fifth foul

Well, I'm glad Wemby is in the West.

Cavs fans asked the same thing when they were both in Cleveland.

They said Holland is out with an eye injury

Victor just kills Cades midrange game

Not a long rest for Cade

Lead is down to 8 starting the 4th

So the refs screw a call up and Detroit had to burn it's last challenge to fix it. Terrible rule

Dumb foul by Cade

Last week the story was San Antonio won because that were lights out from three. They are only shooting 36% from three tonight.

The Pistons are taking turns fouling Victor 25 feet from the basket

OK that was just a dumb foul by Duren

JB with a challenge win.

In defense of Duren. Every day of his life he has been told to challenge the shot. It's hard to forget that two games a year.

Duren lol

Huerter sighting

Now Stewart biting on Victor pump fakes. Greg is right, you're never blocking his shot, just stay on the floor.

Down 15 at the end of the first.

They said Thompson is questionable to return with a right ankle sprain

Duren lol two fouls on Wemby pump fakes

Oh man. Thompson rolled his ankle

This should be on national TV instead of Rockets-Warriors. Better trans and two players that are high for the future of the league.

He should catch a suspension just for wearing that.
