revenge game for drummond! in case anyone missed it, embiid called drummond out for not playing defense after he torched dre earlier in the season.

go pistons!

Idc if he talks ****. He trashes most matchups so as long as he continues to back it up, i don’t mind. With that said, I want Drummond to beat the living **** out of him tonight.

I expect early foul trouble from Dre.

I have a bad feeling about this game. I predict a loss but we will see.

I would hate to lose this one, especially after last night

Compete hard and I'm satisfied. So far this team hasn't tended to string poor games together. Drummond needs to ignore Embiid and just play his game to the best of his ability. It's a team game. Much like the Wizards game, I'm more concerned about weak frontcourt rebounding. Drummond more than holds his own, but needs more/better help against teams with size. Except for Drummond, we sucked on the boards in the last game.

Embiid is just a bad matchup for Drummond. He’s too tall and got 4 inches and more length of Drummond.

Drummond sorta figure how to swipe the ball from embiid by middle of second half of the last game. Because embiid is still very turnover prone.

Detroit needs to send help with embiid in the post. One on one is not going to go well. But that will leave Covington or Redick option or Simmons slashing to the rim.

I think Drummond is more like DeAndre Jordan defender. And that’s bad news for the Pistons.

Hack a Simmons if the sixers get a big lead to frustrate them. or double team Embiid in the post should be the game plan.

Drummond can't let this guy take him off his game with his mouth though. Just stick to what he's been doing and don't get caught up forcing things in a one one battle.

He's been quicker out on the perimeter defending. I expect him to ball out tonight. It's starting to get personal between these two now.

Bad karma man! Bad karma.

Embiid is living in his head right now. He's doing to try and D him up hard and probably pick up quick fouls and try and shoot 15 foot jumpers because Embiid said he can't shoot.

i know after the last game SVG said they didn't have a good gameplan to defend simmons' pick and rolls. they only had a couple games of footage then but hopefully now they can adjust to that. he killed us last game and then obviously embiid crushed drummond when isolated.

We need to do our best to make Simmons a jumpshooter
