While truly it sucks that Ivey got injured in the midst of a career year, I don’t think there’s any doubt that it galvanized the entire team. When the Lions lost Hutch, the entire team came together and guys across the board on both sides of the ball have since elevated their games significantly in his absence, which how we finished the season 15-2. We’re now seeing the same with the Pistons. Harris and THJ have both risen to the occasion the past few games after being nonexistent the prior month. Duren has looked more locked in defensively than he ever has. And guys off the bench like Holland, Sasser and Tec have all given the second unit a much needed boost. And perhaps above all, the entire team has been getting after it defensively the past 5 games. Gotta love how JB has brought these guys together. Sure this team won’t win a title this year, but for the first time since the early 2000s I think we’re finally witnessing the birth of a championship core on the Pistons. The future is bright and the present has been more fun than ever. So proud of these boys.
