Detroit Pistons’ rivals: The troll in the West

  • Sacramento Kings

The Kings and Pistons might be the two unlikeliest rivals in the NBA, but I expect their games will have a little extra spice on them next season for a couple of reasons.

The first is because of Keegan Murray/Jaden Ivey and the fact that they were taken 4th and 5th, respectively, in last year’s drafts.

Fans are already arguing about which one is better, which will lead to a whole lot of smack talk on social media.

But it isn’t just the fans, as Marvin Bagley III has been “debating” with troll fans of his former team, who have plenty of not-so-nice things to say about the former #2 pick.

MBIII hasn’t backed down, and you know he is going to try and put up 50+ points on his former team next season, and his teammates are sure to respond.

This is a beef that started on social media, but will definitely be played out on the court and could lead to one of the Pistons’ best (and most unlikely) rivalries of next season.
