Following Detroit’s epic collapse to the Clippers on Saturday, team morale was at a season low. One way remedy to the ole’ Detroit meltdown blues would be to will a win against the Western Conference’s best team, the Denver Nuggets, and that’s exactly what they did. In fact, they didn’t even have to fight tooth and nail to secure the victory, which is a sight for sore eyes, seeing how the Pistons have let most of their big leads slip, making for unnecessary nail-biters throughout the course of the season so far.
It should be noted that the Nuggets were without three of their key players in, Gary Harris, Jamal Murray and Paul Millsap.
