Indiana Pacers 97, Detroit Pistons 117 (Final)

What’s the buzz on Twitter?

James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Eugene Omoruyi didn’t start playing ball until 10th grade. Nothing about his journey has been comfortable.
“I know someone is chasing my shoes like I’m chasing someone’s shoes. That’s how I always play.”
On a man finding comfort in the uncomfortable:

Scott Agness @ScottAgness
How Haliburton’s absence makes the Pacers unrecognizable — and in turn, his play elevating others could pay dividends:
“People want to come play with Tyrese. He’s gonna put his stamp on this organization, and it’s going to help us recruit players…”

Eugene Omoruyi earned a second 10-day contract and his first start for the #Pistons tonight against Indy. When you score 17 points (8-13 FG) with 6 rebounds and add 3 steals and 2 assists on 313 Day in the D – you earn the @Ally Relentless Player of the Game. pic.twitter.com/bz9J2xA46x9:43 PM

James Wiseman scored 18 points with a career-high 14 rebounds and three blocks in tonight’s 117-97 win vs. IND. After recording three double-doubles through 60 games with Golden State, Wiseman has three double-doubles in just 11 games as a Piston. pic.twitter.com/cbWR1dhxUN9:42 PM

Omoruyi becomes the first player to crack double figures with 11 points. A Boeheim steal led to CoJo pushing the ball and finding Omoruyi down low. Pistons up 17 in the first – 7:35 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Pistons are taking 313 day too seriously. Up 17 in the first quarter. – 7:35 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Pistons up 36-19. – 7:34 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
George Hill, Oshae Brissett, Jordan Nwora, James Johnson and Jalen Smith on the floor now. This evening’s second unit. – 7:34 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
Pacers not getting stops against Pistons’ reserves. Allowing them to shoot 65% and have success inside. They’ve fallen behind by 13pts early, playing in Detroit for the second time in three nights. – 7:33 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Pacers are 7 of 20, 1 of 8 from 3. Pistons 13 of 20, 4 of 9. Pistons clearly the team that wants it more so far tonight despite the fact that they’re not playing anybody either. And Pacers just not making shots. – 7:33 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
This is Detroit’s best first quarter in a while. Leading the Pacers 32-19 with 1:46 left. Hayes (8 points, 7 assists), Omoruyi (9 points) and Duren (4 points, 4 rebounds) setting a strong tone early. – 7:33 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Yeah, this is one of the best opening quarters Detroit has played all season, funny enough lol.
Up 32-19 with 1:46 left. Carlisle has already called a few timeouts.
The Pistons haven’t won a first quarter in 17 outings. – 7:32 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
Don’t look now, but the #Pistons lead 32-19 with 1:46 left in the first quarter. Hayes has been a big part of that with 8 points and 7 assists. – 7:32 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Corey Joseph for 3. Pacers in some trouble here early. Detroit up 32-19. – 7:31 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
First quarter Buddy Boeheim minutes… – 7:31 PM
Detroit Pistons @DetroitPistons
Killian has SEVEN assists already. There’s 3:50 left in the first quarter… – 7:30 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Hayes has six points and seven assists in eight minutes. He’s directly responsible for nine of Detroit’s 10 field goals, with the exception being a Duren putback dunk on a layup he missed. – 7:28 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
Killian Hayes has 6 points and 7 assists with 3:50 left in the first quarter. – 7:28 PM
Tony East @TEastNBA
Nearly half of Detroit’s poinst have come in the paint so far. They’re getting it inside whenever they want and lead 25-17. – 7:27 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Eugene Omoruyi has 7 points on 3 of 4 shooting already. Pacers having a tough time stopping him and the Pistons are up 25-17. – 7:26 PM
Indiana Pacers @Pacers
Isaiah Jackson with the tough finish through contact.💪 pic.twitter.com/GpEIuLLngF7:26 PM

Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
Jalen Rose is sitting courtside tonight. He just stood up and flexed after that last dunk by Jalen Duren. – 7:26 PM
Josh Robbins @JoshuaBRobbins
Kyle Kuzma (right knee soreness), Johnny Davis (non-Covid illness) and Taj Gibson (non-Covid illness) have been listed as questionable to play against the Pistons on Tuesday. – 7:25 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Oshae Brissett your first sub. He’s in for Aaron Nesmith. – 7:25 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Buddy Hield misses a technical free throw. That’s abnormal. – 7:25 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Killian Hayes has six points, five assists and a steal in seven minutes.
Really a problem for Indiana right now. – 7:23 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Hayes found Omoruyi cutting for a layup and now has five assists in six minutes. Pistons are 7-11 from the floor. Hayes has scored or assisted all of Detroit’s field goals so far – 7:23 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Eugene Omoruyi with another bucket. He just signed another 10-day today so he is tonight’s Guy Who Really Wants To Win This Game. – 7:23 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
Duren just checked in for Wiseman. – 7:22 PM
Tony East @TEastNBA
Great move from Isaiah Jackson to get to the rim and draw a foul. Pacers needed that to stop a Pistons run. Jackson finishing through contact. – 7:22 PM
Scott Agness @ScottAgness
In addition to the Pacers being without Haliburton, Turner, McConnell and Mathurin again tonight in Detroit, assistant coach Mike Weinar is not on the team bench.
So Jenny Boucek moved to the front. – 7:22 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Great take for Isaiah Jackson for the layup and the foul. – 7:21 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Rodney McGruder has hit 9 of his last 16 3s. Just cash. – 7:21 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Omoruyi for 3. Pistons up 14-8. – 7:21 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Cade’s got the buffs on again, on 313 day – 7:20 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Pistons 11, Pacers 7 at the first timeout. Another aggressive start for Hayes, who has 6 points and two assists. Scored or assisted every Detroit bucket so far – 7:18 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Pistons call timeout. They’re up 11-7. Pistons are 4 of 7 from the floor. Pacers are 3 of 10. – 7:18 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
The #Pistons have an early 11-7 lead over the #Pacers. – 7:17 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Pistons are up 11-7 early. Great start for Killian Hayes.
Detroit also not getting killed on the glass unlike the other night. – 7:17 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Pacers a 2 of 9 start from the field. Nesmith has both buckets. – 7:16 PM
Indiana Pacers @Pacers

Nesmith the pull-up jumper. He’s got all five of the Pacers’ points. – 7:14 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Good start for Killian Hayes. He’s scored or assisted the first six points. – 7:13 PM

New: Pontiac native Isaiah Jackson played with tenacity in his homecoming game against the #Pistons, living up to his childhood nickname, “Caveboy,” given by his father.
“At a very young age, he was just more energetic than his siblings & everybody else.” detroitnews.com/story/sports/n…6:21 PM

Carlisle on Mathurin: “I’ve been talking to him every day. He’s making some real positive strides with his rehab.” – 5:35 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Also asked Casey about the balance Wiseman has to find between posting up and setting screens: Said the biggest thing for him is to be more decisive. Added that it will come with time. Also noted that learning which side the guards like screens on will help. – 5:29 PM
Omari Sanfoka II @omarisankofa
Asked Casey if he’s gotten a feel for Wiseman’s outside shooting. He said he’s coming along but wants him to “master the paint first” and gradually bring him along as a shooter, similar to Stewart. Said Duren will have opportunities to shoot down the road as well. – 5:22 PM
Dustin Dopirak @DustinDopirak
Back at Little Caesar’s Arena for Night 2 of Pacers-Pistons. Dwayne Casey said the Pistons might play two bigs just because they’re so short-handed. – 5:19 PM
James Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII
Asked Casey which young player, if any, has quickly built some trust similar to the vets, in regards to trusting them to make right play: “Killian is becoming that. The young, old head at point guard.” Also noted Jalen Duren as well. – 5:18 PM

Games moving off of NBA TV:
Nets at Heat on March 25

Bucks at Pistons on March 27 – 4:10 PM
Mike Curtis @MikeACurtis2
The NBA just announced that the #Pistons home game against the Bucks on March 27 will no longer be televised by NBA TV.
It was supposed to be their 4th & final national TV game, but since their TNT game also got taken away, it leaves DET with 2 national TV games this season. – 4:05 PM
Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
#Bucks games moved around television wise – March 25 game at Denver is now on NBATV, and the March 27 gave vs. Detroit has been pulled off that network. – 4:05 PM

The wait is OVER. We’re dropping the ultimate 313 Collection with local fashion creatives @TyMopkins and Mia Ray.
