AUBURN HILLS, Mich. Kyle Korver Jersey . -- It was one of the most spectacular plays of a dreary season for the Detroit Pistons: Andre Drummond knocked a pass away near midcourt, took off toward the basket and threw down an emphatic one-handed dunk while being fouled by Atlantas Elton Brand. "I knew I didnt have a chance," Brand said. Drummonds dunk propelled the Pistons to a 115-107 win over the Hawks on Friday night that snapped Detroits three-game losing streak and handed Atlanta its eighth straight loss. The Hawks shot 17 of 20 from the field during a 41-point second quarter, but the Pistons rallied from an 11-point halftime deficit. "We came together at halftime. We asked each other if we really want this," Drummond said. "We looked each other in the eyes as men and we all came together and decided we wanted to do this. So we came out firing." Atlanta was without guard Jeff Teague, who was out with a sprained ankle. Al Horford was lost for the season in December with a torn pectoral muscle. Paul Millsap had 23 points for the Hawks. "We had that huge second quarter, but they must have gotten a huge pep talk at halftime, because they really came out for the third with a lot of energy," Atlantas Kyle Korver said. Drummonds dunk on Brand gave the Pistons a 93-88 lead with 10:00 to play. Brand was a good sport about it, smiling a bit and even appearing to look up at the scoreboard for a replay. Drummond finished 10 of 11 from the field, but the Hawks finally started fouling him intentionally. The Detroit big man finished 0 for 8 on free throws, and the Pistons eventually took him out for the final 3:40. "Obviously, were trying to get back into the game, and it helped," Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said. "We didnt score every time that we tried it, but it gave us a chance. It also helps that hes a great young player and we got him off the floor for a couple minutes." It was tied at 104 when Detroits Kyle Singler made a 3-pointer from the right wing, and Will Bynum doubled the lead with a driving three-point play with 1:06 to go. A 3-pointer by Singler with 30 seconds left made it 113-106. Greg Monroe had 22 points and 15 rebounds for the Pistons, who stood pat at the trade deadline Thursday. Detroit is now 2 1/2 games behind Atlanta and Charlotte, who are in a virtual tie for seventh place in the Eastern Conference. The Hawks looked unstoppable on offence in the second quarter, scoring at will while going the entire period without a turnover. But the Pistons outscored Atlanta 34-20 in the third. It wasnt a perfect second half by any means for Detroit, but the Pistons did show some urgency. Brandon Jennings, who was having a poor shooting game for Detroit, was fouled twice while shooting 3-pointers. After Jennings missed badly from 3-point range, Josh Smith blocked Millsap at the other end, and Jennings was waiting behind the defence for a layup that gave the Pistons an 82-79 lead. "We made two or three hustle plays that winning teams make," Detroit interim coach John Loyer said. "Two and three bodies on the floor, couple guys going out of bounds. You guys all watch the NBA. The better teams do that." Jennings finished with 12 points and 14 assists, although he didnt play at all in the fourth. Detroit went with Bynum instead, and he finished with nine points and seven assists. "Brandon is a scorer. Brandon has been a great facilitator for us," Loyer said. "He started to attack in the third quarter and Will came in and finished it. Thats what teammates do." NOTES: Atlanta shot 85 per cent in the second quarter, one of the top marks for one quarter in the NBA this season. Denver shot 87 per cent (13 for 15) in the fourth quarter at Toronto on Dec. 1, according to STATS. ... The Pistons outscored the Hawks 66-34 in the paint. ...

Off-season additions Jermain Defoe and Michael Bradley did not train with the club today, prompting Nelsen to declare its too early to tell if either will be ready for Saturday. http://www.authenticcavaliersauthority.com/lebron-james-cavaliers-jersey-c-12/ . The 6-foot-10 centre who won an NBA title with the Miami Heat was voted to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on Monday, adding that honour to becoming a board member at his alma mater.TORONTO - Toronto FC coach Greg Vanney says hes been told he will be back for the 2015 season and will be looking for players with the right commitment to join him.Vanney believes that Toronto (11-14-7) has a good core to build around, despite a disappointing 2014 season that seems destined to end prior to the playoffs for the eighth year in a row.What I think is important is that we have players that are here that want to be here, dont want to be anywhere else but here and not for just one year but for a minimum of a few years, Vanney said after training Tuesday.Because in this league to win, you have to have a core group of players whos very committed, who buy into the philosophy, who are willing to stand and live up to expectation on every single day.Star midfielder Michael Bradley provided his view on next seasons necessary mix on Saturday night after a 3-1 loss to the New York Red Bulls that all but ended TFCs slim playoff hopes.Its important that the right balance is found between keeping a good part of the group together and making sure that the guys who have the right mentality, who have the right commitment, who really bring something every day in a footballing sense — that those guys are here and given every chance to continue to grow together and improve, said the intense U.S. international.Vanney did not name names.Im not going to go through the locker-room for each guy and say who I think is or isnt (committed), said Vanney. But I think we need to get guys who (want to be) here. I think we have a very good core group of guys that believe in this project and want this club to be successful and are ready to work every single day we ask them to work.We need to add some pieces, for sure. The way the team played prior (to Vanney) is not the same way that I would approach playing the game, so what I would say is that we have to evolve and adapt in a few pieces in terms of personnel and things that we need to be better and what I think is better for the league and for the style of play that we want to get to. But the most important thing is having a group thats committed for the long run here.English striker Jermain Defoe has been the player with the biggest question-mark over his head this season, with Toronto turningg down a club-record transfer bid at the end of the summer transfer window, amidst speculation he wants out of the club. Brad Daugherty Jersey. Defoe denied that upon his return to Canada from rehabbing a groin injury in England, but said he couldnt predict the future. His fellow players have been said the 31-year-old English forward has been a good teammate.With the playoffs all but gone, Toronto FC is back in its familiar end-of-season position — trying to end the campaign with a little dignity.With two games remaining, Toronto stands in sixth place in the East, six points behind the Columbus Crew (12-10-10), who hold down the last playoff position.Toronto needs to win at home to Montreal and away to New England and hope Columbus loses in New York and at home to Philadelphia.Mathematically were not entirely out of it, said Vanney, who is 2-5-1 since succeeding the fired Ryan Nelsen at the end of August. Plus were professionals. Plus we are playing at home in front of our fans and they deserve a performance, I think, and a committed team.Sportsclubstats.com, which tracks playoff races, has Torontos chances of making the MLS post-season at 1.0 per cent.Toronto will have to muster its last-ditch challenge Saturday against the Impact without Bradley and centre back Nick Hagglund, both of whom are suspended. Hagglund also limped out of practice early Tuesday after slipping.Captain Steven Caldwell, the clubs defensive lynch pin, acknowledged more was needed.I think overall weve let ourselves down, he said. As a group of players and as a football club, we should have been in a better position than were in so we all have to look individually, honestly at ourselves in the mirror and ask what we could have done better.Personally and as a team, we feel that we left a lot of games out there.Rubbing salt in the wound is the fact that Toronto dominated the team it has been chasing for the last playoff place. Columbus lost all three matches against Toronto this season: 2-0, 3-2 and 3-2.Toronto has 40 points, a franchise record that speaks volumes about the sad-sack history of the franchise. It has also set a club record for single-season wins with 11, surpassing the 10 from 2009 (10-11-9, 39 points).Follow @NeilMDavidson on Twitter Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
