Alexander Black+FollowDetroit’s Black Ghost: The muscle car legendDetroit’s streets once had a secret: a jet-black Dodge Challenger, known as the Black Ghost, would appear out of nowhere, win street races, and vanish before anyone could catch its mysterious driver. Turns out, the man behind the wheel was Godfrey Qualls—a Detroit police officer by day, phantom racer by night. This car wasn’t just fast; it became a symbol of rebellion and mystery, capturing the spirit of the city’s wild 1970s car culture. Now restored and celebrated, the Black Ghost’s story still gets car lovers talking. What other local legends have you heard about Detroit’s racing scene? #Cars #Detroit #MuscleCar10Share

Despite Tyrese Maxey dropping 33 for Philly, Detroit’s depth and late-game composure made the difference and secured the win. #Pistons #NBA #Detroit #Cunningham #Duren #Sixers #Philadelphia 440Share
Matthew Roberts+FollowIs 'Big Ben' Wallace the most overrated HOF player ever?Dude was all defense, no offense — literally one of the lowest-scoring players ever inducted. If he didn’t have the Pistons legacy, the championship aura, and the mythos of that Detroit team, he's leaving zero legacy behind. Great defender? Absolutely. But Hall of Fame lock based on total impact? Not everyone agrees. Look, I'd give him flowers: incredible role player, legendary defender, but far from a complete star. What do you say about the Big Ben? #NBA #NBAUnpopularOpinion #BenWallace #Pistons #Detroit 2911Share
Robert Johansson+FollowJason “White Chocolate” Williams says LeBron would not have gotten bullied by the Bad Boy PistonsJason Williams isn’t buying the idea that LeBron couldn’t handle the physicality of the 80s and 90s. “They say, ‘Oh, he couldn’t play with that physicality.’ But LeBron’s bigger than Rick Mahorn and bigger than Bill Laimbeer,” Williams said. “Those hard fouls on MJ? That wasn’t gonna be like that on Bron.” Williams doubled down — “LeBron’s the best player I’ve ever played against. He could lead the league in all five categories if he wanted to. I don’t think MJ could’ve done that.” In terms of physicality, who do you think wins between LeBron vs. the Bad Boys? #LeBronJames #JasonWilliams #NBA #BadBoyPistons #Detroit 141289Share

Edwin French+FollowAusar Thompson has been consistent this seasonAusar Thompson has been putting in work, averaging 14.0 PPG, 5.8 RPG, 2.8 APG, and 3.4 combined steals + blocks on 54.5% shooting over his last five games. That’s elite two-way consistency from a 21-year-old. Meanwhile, his brother Amen has been thriving in Houston too — efficient, composed, and showing serious growth as a playmaker. Both brothers are starting to look like future cornerstones for their teams. The league might need to brace itself for the Thompson era. #AusarThompson #AmenThompson #Pistons #Rockets #Detroit #Houston 90Share
