Game Thread 12/28: Pacers vs. Pistons 

Post#1 » by boomershadow » Fri Dec 28, 2018 5:32 pm

Now the Pacers turn their attention to the mercurial Detroit Pistons (16-16), who enter Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Friday night as losers of nine their last 12 games.

The Pistons have been led this season by their pair of All-Star big men, Blake Griffin and Andre Drummond.

Griffin has been a sensational scorer, posting 25.2 points per game while extending his range beyond the 3-point line, where he's connected on 36 percent of his attempts this season.

Going to be a hard game, not feeling confident at all, as Turner always has problems with physical bigs.

Also, the rebounding battle has already been lost, just hope we (Myles) don't embarrass ourselves too much.

Drummond normally gives the Pacers a lot of problems, is not hurting us much.

Great effort from the whole team, but especially Thad and Joseph.

Young is a perfect example of a reliable tank.
