OT: Blake Griffin to the Pistons

[Huskyforlife]

Nasty looking front court in Detroit. Pistons lost a lot on the perimeter though. Interesting trade for sure.

Just get Kemba and it may actually work, but as for now, that system ain't gonna work with Reggie Jackson and Ish Smith as the only guards who can dribble on the team.

Looks opposite the trend. Building a monster front court in a league dominated by back courts.

But on the flip side, they are also now potentially the best passing bigs in the league at the 4 and 5 spot, respectively. That really helps against the small ball lineups they will run into.

Drummond with 17 points and 27 rebounds, would have had a 20/30 night but Stan hardly played him in the fourth.

Griffin is an amazing pickup for them. He already has serious chemistry with Andre. Hadn't really watched him in a while and kind of forgot how good he is. Just needs to stay healthy.

Andre could be DPOY....
