Inside the Detroit Pistons Locker Room

Buckingham Palace

OK so maybe Buckingham Palace is a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much. They have leather seats in front of their lockers.  A bench shared with other players won't do for the Pistons, no, they need individual leather seats! Blue and pink lights light the hallways as they enter the locker room and their players lounge looks like it belongs in New York's meat packing district.

Does anyone else find it a little ironic that the city of Detroit calls their arena the "Palace." I mean half the population there can't pay their mortgages and have to live off unemployment, but if they can scrape up enough money to go to a Pistons game then they get to hang out in a "Palace."

With a pimped out locker room the Pistons are still only 3-10, so those state of the art hot/cold tubs don't seem to be working out all that well.
