LAL vs DET Dream11 Lakers vs Pistons Dream11

LAL vs DET Dream11: In this game, the West’s Los Angeles Lakers host the Detroit Pistons in a cross-conference match-up. Pistons and Lakers have been historical rivals, meeting three times in the ultimate stage of the NBA Finals. The storied legacy has taken a hit recently with Pistons being a rebuilding squad for many years now and the rivalry has lost its juice.

The Lakers’ big three-story of Westbrook, LeBron, and Anthony Davis has been off to an underwhelming start. The team has an inexplicable 10-11 losing record and has left the door open for many opponents. With the bench roles still unsure, the Lakers have figured out the offensive end but look lost on defense.

Detroit Pistons have had another tough season and well, that is going to be the theme for their campaign. They are young and vulnerable, leaking points, choking on offense, and getting thoroughly outplayed by multiple units. What has been the saving grace? Difficult to find one!

Host: Los Angeles Lakers

Visitors: Detroit Pistons
Match Timing: 29 November, @ 08:00 AM
Venue: Staples Center

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Pistons: Here we again
What is a rebuild? Going through different picks and motions constantly every year without building something special? Squads like Kings and Pistons have signified that for years now. Every year there is a losing record and there is the talk about some “youth movement”. Sometimes it makes you wonder if this hoarding picks strategy always works because it can have a poor impact on the team culture. Pistons have had some talent but not a workable strategy for years now.

Lakers: They play it too close with poor defense
Lakers have played five Overtimes this season, winning four of them. That is all fine and dandy but the team has played three of those games against teams with losing records. One thing is clear, the Lakers’ defense is bad and that leads to these close games. The team continually allows 30 points a quarter and gives up a ton of openings to play at a fast pace. What can the Lakers do to fix their defense? It has been really bad this season, one of the worst.
