Bad boys of basketball bounce past
L.A. Clippers in exhibition contest
By John Adkisson
Staff Reporter
The Detroit Pistons don ’ t play nice
basketball. Instead, the “Bad Boys”
of the NBA do what it takes to win,
and that formula has made them suc
cessful.
The Pistons have claimed two
consecutive NBA titles, and they
kicked off their title defense Friday
with a 110-95 victory over the Los
Angeles Clippers in an exhibition game
at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
Detroit center Bill Laimbeer said
the Pistons will keep their reputation
as the villains of the league as long as
the fans and media want it.
“As long as the media keeps writ
ing about it, we’ll keep that image,”
Laimbeer said.
winning a inira consecutive inba
title will be a matter of being physi
cally prepared and in shape, he said.
“After we won fhc first one, the
mental block was gone,” Laimbecr
said. “Now the challenge is to be
physically prepared and take every
game seriously.”
He added that he doesn’t refer to
himself or the Pistons as ‘Bad Boys’.
“We just call ourselves world
champions,” Laimbecr said.
Laimbecr was sporadically booed
when he entered the game or argued a
call. But Laimbecr said the booing is
something he is used to.
“I’m in the entertainment busi
ness,” he said. “If somebody’s got to
wear the black hai, it may as well be
me.”
In Friday’s game, played in front
of about 10,306 fans at the Devaney
Sports Center, the Pistons dominated
from the start. Using tight defense
and good play from guards Isiah
Thomas and Joe Dumars, the Pistons
went on to rout the Clippers 110-95.
Thomas, who scored 18 points and
dished out nine assists, said the team
looked sluggish in its 1990 debut.
“We need a few more weeks of
training camp to get into the shape we
need to be,” Thomas said.
A bright spot for Detroit was the
plav of 7-foot center William Bedford.
Bedford, who was in town a month
ago to promote the game, scored 18
points and collected 12 rebounds.
Detroit coach Chuck Daly said he
was impressed with the play of Bedford,
who lost 25 pounds in the off-season.
“I thought he played very well
tonight,” Daly said. “Any time you
lose that much weight, it only stands
lo reason you re going to be in better
shape.”
Former Missouri player John
McIntyre also played in the game,
scoring five points in 12 minutes of
play.
McIntyre said that making the tran
sition from a college team to the
NBA World Champions has been
tough.
“It’s a huge step to take,” McIn
tyre said. “I know I could be playing
a lot better.” I
