3. Detroit Basketball vs. Everybody

Detroitttttttttt Basketball is a trend and staple in the NBA community. But Detroit vs Everybody well that’s a trend that represents the grind of the toughest city against everybody. Folks from Detroit are often criticized or ridiculed because of all the negative past events that have taken place in the city.

No other city is graded tougher or, perhaps, cheated more than the fans of Detroit. I mean just look at the Lions and last Sunday’s game in the NFL. Or how about when the Pistons played the Spurs in 2005 NBA Finals, the NBA was in a scandal with one of its own referees, betting on the game he worked in. If thats not enough, how about former Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga being robbed of a perfect game back in 2010 by an umpire.

Bad Boy identity. How the Pistons came to represent the city of Detroit. light

To see the Pistons taking such pride in the Detroit vs Everybody slogan. Judging by media day this Pistons teams shows signs of great chemistry as the team who wants to represent Detroit brand proudly and with flair.

The Pistons are never going to be the  “Splash Brothers” of the Golden State Warriors or the “Miami Heatles.” But they’ve been the “Bad Boys” twice now. Representing the grind and culture of one the most iconic cities in the country “Motor City.”
