Weekend Recap: Pistons on a 2-game Winning Streak

By Calvin Little

Despite starting out 0-1, the Pistons quickly rebounced giving fans a great weekend. They picked up 2 wins, putting them at 2-1 on the season so far. Beating a Houston Rockets team in a close matchup where the Pistons were underdogs and taking advantage of a now 0-3 Boston Celtics team where they dominated for most of the game.

This Pistons team has a lot of eyes looking at them this season. Despite that pressure they've been able to get off to a really nice start. However, similar to what we've seen with other teams before, a strong start is irrelevant to a teams finish. Think of the Tigers this year. They played great, up until when it mattered most. Hopefully the Pistons can do the opposite and instead play great year-round.

Tonight, the Pistons take on the Cleveland Cavaliers. They'll be at home in a rowdy Little Caeser's Arena, where fans will be cheering them on to get a hat trick 3 game winning streak. Despite the Cavs being favored, this Pistons team has embodied Grit and toughness, just like it's home city. I'd never count them out, no matter what Vegas tells you.
