After a disappointing 18-point loss against the Toronto Raptors in the first game of the season, the undermanned Detroit Pistons – who will continue to be without Reggie Jackson for at least the next few weeks – bounced back against the Orlando Magic and Milwaukee Bucks

With high expectations coming into the season, it’s going to be interesting to follow how this team continues to survive the first couple of weeks of the season without Jackson.

If nothing else, it’s something to note.
