The Detroit Pistons finished their three-game road trip on the West Coast on a winning note, beating the Golden State Warriors 131-124 on Saturday (PH time) at the Chase Center. Six players scored in double figures for the Pistons, who finally snapped their four-game losing skid against the Warriors dating back to the 2023-24 season.

The victory didn’t come easy for the Pistons, who saw their double-digit lead evaporate in the fourth quarter. Detroit led 117-104 when Golden State suddenly unleashed a 10-0 run to cut the deficit to three points with 6:19 remaining in the contest. That was the closest the Warriors got to the Pistons’ lead, though, as Detroit held on for its 16th away win of the season.

Could it be that Podz is really Kerr's illegitimate son?

Mr Shugo

Why would a coach take out the best player in the final quarters to maintain a pod? Unacceptable.

Curry

After watching this game, it feels like the Warriors are stronger than the Lakers. The Lakers basically give up when they're down 20 points, especially against strong teams like the Pistons. The Warriors almost made a comeback without Curry, and their defensive efficiency is also ranked in the top ten in the league. It's just that the team currently lacks players who can hit clutch shots.

To be honest, apart from Curry, none of the Warriors players are valuable!

Trade Curry + Green for Giannis Antetokounmpo. Even I, a Golden State Warriors fan, can't stand it anymore
