Ausar Thompson's clear mentality shift is even making losses tolerable
The Detroit Pistons lost. It's the headline that most will focus on, as the Pistons fell to 6-2 after a close but frustrating game against the Philadelphia 76ers. What was learned along the way, however, is that Ausar Thompson's apparent improvement on offense is more real than anticipated.
Thompson still has significant question marks to address, but he's shaking off some of his more passive tendencies and is beginning to assert himself in a way the Pistons should love. He proved as much with a season high in field goal attempts.
