DEFENSE WON THIS GAME 😤 Pistons Beat Cavs SHORT-HANDED | Daniss Jenkins Took OVER🔥

The Detroit Pistons found a way — even when nothing came easy.

Shorthanded without Tobias Harris and Jalen Duren, the Pistons battled through a rough shooting night and too many turnovers, but what separated this team was DEFENSE. When the offense struggled, Detroit dug in, got stops, and refused to fold.

The turning point?
Daniss Jenkins caught fire in the second quarter, pouring in 21 huge points that completely shifted the momentum. His scoring burst carried the Pistons through the second half and ultimately over the finish line.

This wasn’t a pretty win — it was a gritty, grown-man win.
Effort. Defense. Next-man-up mentality.

If this is the identity the Pistons are building, the league better start paying attention.

  1. I would like to see Stewart, Duncan, Duran, Cade, and Tobias…..With Ausar as the first person off the bench for Stew….at about the 6 min mark or so……That way we can maintain defensive intensity….

  2. When you asked "guess who's back?" I immediately answered, simultaneously with you, _"Marcus Sasser !"

  3. We don’t have many defenders on our team. I don’t have confidence in Ron, Levert, Ivey replacing him. Tobias in his career is no longer a small forward. If you see him as a poor defender guarding power forward and centers he will disappoint you when he is guarding shooting guards and small forwards.

    Ausar’s job is defending the best player. It would be nice if he could improve on offense but I just think it’s a mistake if he’s not playing in the starting lineup unless your trading for a forward like Trey Murphy,Brandon Miller, Miles Bridges or Obi Toppin. We got screwed in the draft when it comes to having a second option.

  4. 5:21 Stop it Champ – Defense wins championships. We’ll see a preview of Ausar’s value tomorrow night when he’s tasked to stymie Bridges, Clarkston, and Brunson.

  5. You are on target with your analysis of Ausar and how he should be used. jD, Stew, Tobias, Ivey, & Cade. Scoring, ball handling, & Defense.

  6. Ausar is thinking too much about whats happening when he has the ball in his hands. at his best, hes just doing what comes natural to him, slashing to the rim using his speed and athleticism.

  7. Number 9 Thompson had a clutch put back off the Jenkins miss late in the game. He does things that the box score doesn't show.

  8. Time out A Thompson it is not a terrible score. He just compared to what we have on the bench yeah I mean come out the bench for a while but he definitely just not right now but you still playing defense you know he still valuable, but I’ll get what you’re saying, bro.

  9. Aye King. I love the vids , could you do a video on JI?.. he seems disconnected from the team at times, I would love to know your thoughts on him thus far.
