I dont care if it is preseason, Im pumped for some ball again. I think Jennings is out for a couple games so Augustin is starting.

I'm so annoyed that i have to work tomorrow night.
Ive been waiting so long for this game.

It'll be interesting how SVG uses Drummond/monroe/smith.

Does anyone know how to get the free tickets for the nosebleed section during the preseason?

Normally, they tell you how to do that at the open practice, but that's not happening until Wednesday and I can't make it out on a weekday.

If you have a Pistons.com account they're running the free preseason ticket promo.

Try this link http://info.palacenet.com/o01BO00UN008QT0aJMSVDL0

Promo code is Pistons

On topic, going tomorrow, can't wait to see the team again!

I have a pistons.com account. I use the PISTONS promo code. I get as far as seeing "PISTONS PRESEASON FLYER", but I can;'t actually click on it, nor does it show me any of the preseason games as options. Tried with a couple different browsers, not sure how to obtain tickets. I'm missing something -- not sure what?

I'm also going to the regular season home opener (paid for that) so it's not like I'm a total cheapskate here. i just don't see a way to order anything after authenticating. And I really would like to go to tomorrow's game!

I'll be there. Should be a good to decent time, I just hate the drive up from the Adrian area. Free tickets, good part of my birthday week.

Anyways, any word on if the Bulls will be playing Rose? I know that they are on the second of a back to back tonight after playing at Washington last night.

I'm excited for this game even thought its preseason since its our first glimpse on how SVG plans to utilize his players.

On the Bulls Board, it sounds like there will be no Noah or Rose tonight, FWIW.

So bring on a heavy dose of Dougie McBuckets.

the bulls played yesterday so I think they'll sit some people, but we should at least *hopefully* get a glimpse as to what lineups SVG likes to use.

I wouldn't put too much into the minutes players are getting as this is a time for chemistry and experimenting with lineups.

It could certainly change over the course of pre-season, but I want to see which bigs start/sub.

Oh man. About time preseason comes. It's been a while since anything has happened. I see Smith starting with Drummond as well as Meeks and Augustin. I think it's safe to say Butler will start as well. Should be fun watching our new players play. Drummond alone without Noah playing should win us the game. I want to see him dominate!!

Augustine/Meeks/Butler/Smith/Drummond is actually the lineup I wanna see. Jennings/KCP/Singler/Jerebko/Monroe off the bench gives balance to both lineups.
