Pistons/Spurs 7pm + Drummond begins conditioning?

Vincent Ellis ‏@Vincent_Ellis56
Drummond running steps at AT&T Center. That would be conditioning, right?


Also, does this Drummond tweet mean he might be playing tonight?!

I'd be very surprised if he played tonight. That said, I really hope he does, assuming he's fully recovered.

yeah I doubt it, but just reading he's running stairs listening to music getting ready for "my game" tonight, makes it sound like he's playing.

Great to hear he's cleared for physica; activity though, even if not playing tonight, as that means it could be fully healed, and just needs a little more time to condition before coming back

I have no idea how he's feeling or how severe the injury was, but I think he should miss as much time as necessary to get 100%. The back issue shouldn't even be relevant by the time he plays. If he feels good now, cool with me...I trust Arnie and Mike.

Moose always gets owned by duncan, then again so does every body else.


As far as dre, even if dre's cleared to play, i'd suspect we'd only see him about 10-15mins for a couple games. he's been sititng around for 4 weeks, he's probably out of shape

Is it just me or is running stairs in a stadium maybe not the safest first activity for a million dollar athlete just recovering from a back injury? lol

One wrong step and its all over

Stairs really work your lower back, it might be a test, it also helps with conditioning.

These foul calls are pathetic. Barely touch the guy and ref blows his whistle.

Jose needs to learn he has 3 options around him on offense and Maxiell is not one of them. lol

He sets up Max for jumpshots way too often
