Game 27: Pistons (14-12) vs. Nuggets (14-12) - 7 PM EST

hopefully this is when we can finally end this losing streak. the nuggets are 2-3 since jokic got injured and he won't play tonight. millsap got wrist surgery a couple weeks ago so he'll be out too.

the nuggets without jokic and millsap are very guard/wing-heavy so drummond will be going up against mason plumlee and kenneth faried all night. if he can put up with faried's energy then he can have a big night.

the nuggets have a very balanced attack, similar to us. barton is their leading scorer with 16 PPG and they have five guys averaging between 14-16 PPG, though two of those guys are out. with no premier scoring threat on the wing look for SJ to get fewer minutes again if he's struggling.

game threads have become increasingly more dead with every loss, hopefully this game gets the forum headed the other direction.

go pistons!

I hope so.

It's frustrating to play with good effort and keep coming up short against good teams.

It's a long season... let's start a new streak tonight.

the line is DET -6.5, not sure i would put money on that but hope it works out for you. the nuggets don't really have a rim protector so i could see reggie having one of his classic games unless denver blitzes pick and rolls. not sure how they usually play defense though.

No excuse to lose this one. Really need to dominate them and build confidence back up to handle this next group of very winnable games.

Haven't got to see Wilson Chandler play this season.

Many posters here have had strong interest in him.

It will be good to scout him a little.

Jokic & Milsap are both still out so I'm hoping to see Dre really bounce back tonight.

yeah the spread was kinda high. I took em straight.
Parlayed them with the Spurs who were like -230 somehow in Dallas w/ Leonard returning?

Got like +112 odds. Gonna have some fun. (easy to root for you guys too w/ AB lol).
