Stanley Johnson insists Pistons are better than Memphis despite two losses

MEMPHIS -- Stanley Johnson still isn't convinced.

The Detroit Pistons lost 103-101 Thursday to the Memphis Grizzlies, their second loss to the Grizzlies by a total of three points this season, but don't try telling Johnson that Memphis is the better team.

He isn't buying.

Johnson was defiant in the face of two critical losses to Memphis that could loom large in final reckoning this season, while Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy declined to call them the two toughest losses of the season. All losses are tough, Van Gundy insisted.
