Embiid 'owns real estate' in Drummond's head

DETROIT -- Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid might have lost to the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night, but there is a place he might have won.

In Pistons center Andre Drummond's head.

"I think I own a lot of real estate in his head," Embiid told reporters after the Sixers' 133-132 loss to the Pistons. "We lost, so I'm not supposed to talk trash, but he knows damn well that he can't guard me. But that was a team effort. You know, Blake [Griffin] had a good game, and they were able to pull it off, so we got another one tomorrow, and we got to do a better job.
