Milwaukee Bucks Preseason Preview: Oct. 13 vs Detroit Pistons
By Ti Windisch
The Milwaukee Bucks get spooky on Friday the 13th when the Detroit Pistons motor into town for Milwaukee’s final preseason game.
Thanksgiving is still more than a month away for American readers (Happy belated Thanksgiving to any of our Canadian friends out there!), but there is a lot to be thankful for right now if you’re a Milwaukee Bucks fan.
The preseason is shorter this season, which means less time spent watching players you pretend to have known about for years after you Googled them earlier that day and more time spent watching real, true NBA basketball, which starts in LESS THAN ONE WEEK.

Additionally, there is a Halloween-type aspect to the Bucks last preseason game. When the Detroit Pistons show up for a game at the BMO Harris Bradley Center it will be Friday the 13th. The chances of several IT jokes being made are much higher than even Philadelphia’s over-under.
The Pistons are a complicated team in a precarious position right now, and watching them play should be interesting. Detroit used to be a team seen as on the rise, much like the Bucks, although things haven’t exactly gone according to plan for either team since their appearances in the 2016 and 2015 NBA Playoffs, respectively.
To see which of them should fare better during the 2017 NBA Preseason on Friday, we’ll go through major keys for both teams as well as a Piston to watch. After all of that is over and done with it will be time to make some score predictions on the game’s action.
