Pregame Reading:

New DBB Addition Joe Truck had a nice film breakdown of Bruce Brown playing point guard and how the team can help out Andre Drummond on offense.

James Edwards at The Athletic had a really good piece about the burgeoning relationship between Sekou Doumbouya and Pascal Siakam.

Rod Beard at The Detroit News has your in-depth rundown of the past week on his Monday Drive.

Forbes’ Duncan Smith comes out with a forceful defense of Andre Drummond’s continued improvement on both ends.

Also, remember DBB favorite Jose Calderon? He’s taking on a new role - Special Assistant to NBA Players’ Association Executive Director Michelle Roberts. Good for Jose! (And good for us - now there’s a 0% chance he can return to the Pistons after all the point guard injuries.)

Let’s get this win, y’all.
