I took Pistons +12. Let down game for Milwaukee, plus no Hayes for Detroit.

Man could go either way. Blake playing against Giannis is so bad for the Pistons, but maybe they give Blake some 2016 calls.

If Blake was also out, along with Hayes, I could see the Pistons +12 being a good bet. Blake needs to shoot %50 from 3! 8-) 8-)

I tossed the Back Door Cover factor in there too - been good at that this year. Monday’s game, Warriors.....

Who's in the starting lineup tonight? I'd guess we'll see Wright at PG but now sure who will be at SG if Jackson still isn't good to go.
PG: Wright
SG: SVI
F: Grant
F: Blake
C: Plumlee

Blake guarding Giannis is ridiculous

The kneeling helped my Pistons +12. The Pistons play following the kneeling did not.

Sad to see all these vets getting to start the game now we don't have Hayes I'd be great to get Bey or Stewart into that starting lineup so you play 4 vets with one young guy.

Blake is a good tank commander, he can barely move

We have a lot of 7-9th men on contender players on this team. We’ll see if they get traded at the deadline

I wish our center shot threes like Brook Lopez. Or Christian Wood

He’s actually been pretty good considering age

Still time to hedge on the Bucks so you lose less!

He has a lot to learn, but plays hard and is leading rookies in RPG. Remember he too is only 19 years old its not like we're getting 4 year college Draymond Green.

Stewart has been a pretty solid for us and its why he's getting that playing time. He goes out and battles, and he also is a good screen setter.

Return to Detroit Pistons
