Underlying issues during Pistons hot start doomed them against the Celtics

There was a bit of a kerfuffle on Pistons Twitter toward the end of last week, after Andre Drummond tweeted about how he plays for his teammates rather than for fans.

I am a man of the people and love all detroit fans.... but This is why when media ask do we play for the fans and we say no. Nothin satisfies them. Which is why I always say I’m worried about the guys I have in my locker room https://t.co/pyHc3qI4Dh

One local media entity (yes, the one you’d expect to run with it) ran with it to generate some regular nonsense about how Drummond doesn’t play for fans, is criticizing them, junk like that.
