Today, the Detroit Pistons went to an away game to challenge the Utah Jazz. The team’s previous game was postponed due to health and safety issues, but the extra day of rest did not make them more aggressive. In the end, they lost 105-117.
Team player Blake Griffin made 4 of 13 shots in the game, only 1 of 6 3-pointers, 11 points and 3 rebounds, 3 turnovers, plus or minus -16. The ball was not played well, and Griffin was in a bad mood. He tore his jersey angrily at halftime to vent his dissatisfaction.

Since playing with the Bucks in the 2019 playoffs with an injury, Griffin’s form has plummeted. Last season, he averaged only 15.5 points per game. This season, he took a step back, averaging only 12.5 points per game, and shooting and three-point shooting percentages were 37.6. % And 34.4% are not what a 31-year-old All-Star power forward should be. Before facing the Warriors, Griffin only scored 5 points on 1 of 8 shots.
In this campaign against the Jazz, the Pistons were beaten by their opponents helplessly. At the end of the half game, they had fallen behind their opponents by as much as 23 points. Griffin’s halftime stats were 2 of 9 shots, 0 of 4 three-pointers, and only 5 points and 1 rebound. He was very depressed on the bench, lowered his head and bit his shirt, and when he got up he kicked the bench hard. When entering the player channel, he simply tore his jersey in half and was quite dissatisfied with his performance.
The Pistons recovered in the second half. Griffin first turned around and hit a hook from the penalty area, and then shot a three-pointer from the outside, but that just couldn’t change anything. Griffin also made two consecutive mistakes and was counter-fasted by opponents. Can replace it. Griffin didn’t score a point in the final quarter, and the team also won another big defeat.
