Jaden Ivey delivers the highlights, and the two-big lineup is continuing to improve for the young Pistons.
Bojan Bogdanovic continues to showcase his skills for Detroit and the rest of the NBA. Yeah, there were some ugly late turnovers and it was an inefficient night overall, but he continues to be a bucket for the Pistons. Eventually, maybe you’ll want to see him dial back on the attempts when he doesn’t have it, but for a 21-year-old with some documented confidence issues, we are far from at that moment. The Nets’ frontcourt is far from the NBA’s most imposing, but Stewart and Duren were a combined plus-13 no the night. The Pistons outrebounded Brooklyn, won the turnover battle, led by as many as 19 points, shot 47% from the field and went to the line 34 times, making 29. The Durants, uh, I mean Nets and Pistons kept trading baskets, but Durant’s threes were worth more and suddenly the Pistons went from up 12 to down two with 3.1 seconds left.
