Get the fuck outta the Palace!
Pope from Downtown
Andre Drummond, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Reggie Jackson combined for more than 100 minutes played and zero turnovers, while each scoring over 20 points.
Detroit built a big lead behind 37 first quarter points, their most in any frame all season. That lead kept through three but dwindled in the fourth.
Jackson kept taking it to the hoop and getting us to the free throw lead to maintain a small cushion. Each time Toronto took the lead, he re-claimed it.
Tayshaun Prince drove for the lefty hook over two defenders in the final minutes to help the Pistons win 106-104. He raised his arms up and down, signaling the Prince’s official return to the Palace.
Drummond also snagged 18 boards, and Jackson handed out nine assists. The tandem have developed some real chemistry. Usually the photo-bomber, Drummond found himself invaded by a jumping Jackson in his post game interview.
We’re doing this all without Greg Monroe. Get better soon, Moose!
(We’re not done yet.)
…these guys are playing good basketball that’s fun to watch….who would know the Palace better than the Prince!
