If we are going to be in the playoffs winning games like this has to become automatic. 2 game win streak here we come. 20-20 for Drummond tonight.

CHA plays CLE tonight and they're going to be mad after last game. Good chance to get within 1 game of 8th.

Also MIA plays GS so if we win we could be only 3.5 games from 4th again.

We'll see how the team comes out tonight. You'll be able to see just by Drummond's energy. I'm calling it right now. If we lose tonight and we're very much likely not to, I'm giving up on the season. Yeah it's like that. I'm sick and tired of the BS. It's crap. I don't want to keep my hope alive for a team that doesn't play hard. We better win tonight or the season is over

Yeah this is a must win. I expect a good effort and 15 point win.

no matter what BS the 76ers go through, that team always fights hard, so this can't be a game the Pistons can think they'll just coast to a win. They got us twice last season because the Pistons did that.

Awesome graphic in the OP. Really sleek design.

I expect tens if not hundreds of people to make it to the Palace through this snowstorm.

think we only win by 7 or 8. Not good enough to beat teams decisively even against the worst team in the NBA.

11 of our 28 wins have been by double digits.

We should win this as well as get a decent look at Hilliard, Bullock etc. They are playing the d league team

We NEED this win. The Hornets are playing the Cavs, there's a good chance they will lose but we can't rely on that. We have to go on some kind of wining streak and it has to start tonight if we want any hope to make it to the playoffs. No more taking nights off Pistons, you've shown us you can beat the best, now show us you can win consistently!!!!

I hope the players don't have that mind set. They need to act like every team they play are the Warriors and give it 100% every game.

i am pretty sure they don't. This is their shot to show they can produce with increased minutes. They should be hungry and i do think our starters will show up with energy. They have the past 2 games.

hopefully

I definitely see a difference in Drummond's energy the past two games. Refs are really favoring him now and it's nice. This game will be big for him

This is an absolute must win tonight. Philly is also on the second night of a back-to-back, so no excuses losing this one. Can't afford to lose anymore games like this for the remainder of the season. I expect a good showing from Pistons tonight.
