Mitch quotes: Said they are looking forward to competitive games in this part of the schedule, said the Pistons play with a lot of toughness, said “you can’t get rich quick” and both the Pistons/Spurs didn’t skip steps, said the game is slowing down for Wemby and he is processing how he can dominate the game.
Bickerstaff quotes: Said they are consistent with their identity with rebounding and forcing turnovers, said the team always responds and Bickerstaff’s frustrations at times are a problem (was angry with team at half), said Ausar has such a big defensive impact, said Duren was “a dominant force on both ends of the floor.”
