Pistons vs Trailblazers Discussion: Game Time, TV, Odds, and More
Dec 05, 2025
After a completely dispiriting loss to a Milwaukee Bucks team whose only other win in 10 games was against the Brooklyn Nets, the Detroit Pistons are looking to rebound against the feisty Portland Trail Blazers. The Blazers are coming off of a win against the Cleveland Cavaliers and great p
erformances from Deni Advija, Shaedon Sharpe, and Caleb Love. Former Piston Jerami Grant added 16, 6, and 5, and was a game-high plus 16. Toumani Camara played great defense and was an efficient 5-of-7 from the floor, including three threes. To put it as plain as I can, the Blazers can be a problem. And this Detroit team seems to love to create problems even when they don’t exist.
The Milwaukee game was a huge disappointment all around, but I was particularly upset with the big men. Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart combined for 13 points, 11 rebounds, and one ejection in 33 minutes of action. Detroit was outscored in points in the paint, which rarely happens, and on fastbreak points, ditto. Also, the turnovers. Oy. They have a lot to clean up.
