Is this game even going to happen now with all this snow? And if it does where they're be a single soul in the stands?

Don't gotta good feeling about this game either. I think we could get blown out. Hope it is postponed. Could give SVG free practice time too.

Are y'all serious? This ain't the first snow storm on the day of a Pistons game.

Really looking forward to this game. Clips got a balanced starting roster, and I’m sure AB and Tobias will be looking for revenge.

Was sort of hoping Jordan would be traded to make the game a little easier, but it’s probably better for the pistons that he didn’t end up going to an east team.

Blake seems fired up and said he's going to be taking it to them so we got this

“It’s a game where I really know that team, but we’re trying to get wins, they’re trying to get wins. I’m not the guy to be all buddy-buddy during games. It’s going to be a war.”

ESPN game now correct? Perfect timing for the team to lay a greased turd on national television so everyone can dismiss the team again.

I'm negative about this one as well.

I'm usually concerned when we play with no energy but when we can pumped up play from Drummond like him being on national tv and Blake playing with a agenda I think we good.

I think the only time they postpone a game due to weather is if it’s dangerous (hurricane, etc.) or if the team can’t fly in on time. Clippers have had like all week off so I’m assuming they are in Detroit already.

I feel like we've had them cancelled before over too much snow

I went to a game back in 2005 against the Bulls where the snow/ice/roads were so much worse than this, but again that’s 13 years ago so Idn.

Confirmed L, Ducler didn't start the the game thread.
I'm requesting Ducler make a new thread for the game thread later today :lol:

Both Jameer Nelson (trade completion) and James Ennis (trade completion) are listed as questionable in the game notes for Friday's game vs. the Clippers.

The Pistons acquired both players prior to Thursday's deadline. All players involved in the deals need to complete physicals for the trades to become official. We should have an update on their status by Friday afternoon. If they are available to play, it's very unlikely they would see anything more than spot minutes, as they haven't had a chance to familiarize themselves with the team and the Pistons playbook, etc.

I think if OP copies the image into the top post once Ducler makes it, we should be ok. hopefully..

Duclear has to start getting on them quicker, I'm the last guy who should be starting them with my creativity LMAO

Anyways, the snow definitely won't postpone the game, but will probably cause quite a few people to stay home. Definitely a shame since LCA will look even more empty than usual on national tv, against Blake's old team too.

Hopefully we take care of business and give the fans who do make it lots to cheer about.

they'll definitely talk about the snow during the game. they'll probably sell that as the reason it's empty

Cool - get to see this one out in Cali. Hard to predict this one - lots of mixed emotions, especially for Tobias coming back, and to a lesser extent, AB.
