Omari Sankofa of the Detroit Free Press writes about why Jerami Grant thinks the Pistons rebuild is different than the Philadelphia 76ers.

Oh, and you know that picture somebody made of Isaiah Stewart and Ben Wallace in the ilk of that Michelangelo painting? Sankofa caught up with the dude who made that, too.

In the Detroit News, Rod Beard wrote about the Pistons’ youth and how hard it is to jump to being a contender.

Tank Watch

You want Atlanta, without Trae Young, to beat the Pistons
You want the Orlando Magic to upset the Los Angeles Lakers
You want the Oklahoma City Thunder to upset the Philadelphia 76ers
You want the Cleveland Cavaliers to beat the Toronto Raptors
You want the Minnesota Timberwolves to beat the Utah Jazz and somehow sweep their season series

Enjoy the game!
