On Monday night, the Detroit Pistons faced their 20th consecutive defeat. Despite the setback, Pistons head coach Monty Williams found reasons to be optimistic.

“I think we’re starting to figure out that we can score if we space the floor properly,” Williams said. “I’m learning how to use certain guys on the team.”

Williams mentioned that the team would involve rookie wing Ausar Thompson increasingly as a screener and roller. He also discussed the positive impact of Alec Burks and Jaden Ivey on the team’s spacing.

“As much as this losing hurts all of us… it hurts like you can’t believe, I still see a lot of growth and I’m encouraged by some of the things I saw tonight,” Williams said. “Now we’ve got to try to build on it and get to a place where we have the lead, keep the lead, and close.”
