For us East Coach people, the West Coach road trip is always the worst part of the season because you either have to sacrifice sleep to watch the games or not watch the games at all. And in the case of this road trip, it was one of the Pistons’ best stretches of basketball of the season.
Last night’s game against the Lakers was ugly, but before that, the Pistons had a competitive loss to the Clippers and a couple of wins over the Kings and Trail Blazers. Stealing a couple of games on the road is good for any team, but especially for a team that only has 8 wins on the season.
