Andre Drummond apparently didn’t like getting dunked on. He just lowered his shoulder and leveled James Johnson.

Drummond was clearly trying to send a message. He didn’t even put up his arms to even suggest he was contesting the shot. This was all about putting Johnson on his butt.

I really like how Greg Monroe took center stage in the altercation – pushing away Patrick Patterson and a pointing Chuck Hayes, who was playing enforcer for the Raptors, and telling both it was enough. However Monroe feels about sticking with the Pistons long term, there’s no question he’s trying to push aside the distractions and be part of this team while he’s here.
