MINNEAPOLIS -- Andre Drummond flexed his muscles, bowed his back and enforced his will on the Minnesota Timberwolves.And the free-falling pups showed they wanted nothing to do with Detroits monster in the middle, raising alarm bells all over Minnesota.Drummond had 22 points and 22 rebounds for his second straight 20-20 game and the Pistons cruised to a 117-90 victory over the Timberwolves on Friday night.His energy was great, Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. He was dominant. He was all over the boards.Marcus Morris had 15 points and seven rebounds and the Pistons had their way with Minnesotas struggling defense, hitting 14 of 29 3-pointers. Detroit came into the game second-to-last in the NBA averaging just 7.1 made 3s per game.Andrew Wiggins scored 16 points and Karl-Anthony Towns had 14 points and 12 rebounds for the Wolves.Drummond had his third 20-20 game of the season and 10th since 2014-15, the most in the NBA during that span, and Detroit won for the fourth time on the road in the last five games after starting the season 1-8 away from home.I give my all every night, Drummond said. When the balls falling the right way like that, my energy kept going up more and more as the game went on because everything was kind of going the right way that night.Van Gundy has been harping on Drummond to give more consistent effort night-in and night-out, and he beamed that he has gotten three straight strong performances from his All-Star center.Timberwolves coach Tom Thibodeau is having even more difficulty squeezing energy out of his team and said he was very concerned that his message is not getting through to a team that is 6-17.Im going to keep coming. I dont go away, Thibodeau vowed. Im going to look at everything, re-examine. Somethings being missed. Its got to change.Detroit broke the game open in the third quarter, hitting six 3s during a 31-10 run that bled into the fourth and prompted boos from a sparse Target Center crowd.Reggie Jackson scored 16 points in his fourth game back from a left knee injury.REELING WOLVESMinnesota has lost seven of its last eight games and has not won at home since Nov. 17.We can accept making mistakes and dont make shots, said Ricky Rubio, who had 10 points. Playing with no heart, with no desire, its just awful. Right now, its just bad.Thibodeau said everything is on the table as he looks to fix things, including lineup changes.Something is not right, he said. We have to find the answer to that.LONG DISTANCEThe Wolves started out the season as the best 3-point shooting team in the NBA, an enormous improvement from recent seasons when they have languished near the bottom of the league.
