Pistons vs. Clippers preview: Blake Griffin returns to face his former team

The Detroit Pistons play their seventh road game in nine contests with one win to show for themselves. It gets worse — the team has lost 16 of its past 20 games. It gets even worse — today they face off against Blake Griffin’s former team the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Clippers have a better present (24-17, fifth in the West) and future (eyes on signing two max free agents in the offseason with No. 1 target being Kawhi Leonard) than the Detroit Pistons. There will be a mix of cheers and boos, but mostly cheers, a tribute video to Blake’s eight-year career in LA, and a Pistons lost by 12+ points.
