Social media has a knack for blowing things out of proportion, especially in the sports world. Detroit Pistons All-Star center Andre Drummond fell victim to that Friday morning as he addressed a tweet from Pistons writer Rod Beard, who stated how tough it can be at times to achieve fan satisfaction.

The Pistons are off to a strong start (4-0) with Drummond and Blake Griffin dominating in the Motor City. Beard suggests now that Detroit is winning games, the fans want them to win these games by more points.

Drummond's response suggests his focus is on his teammates and not what the fans think. It's nearly impossible to please a fan base considering so many opinions coexist within that particular fan base.

Naturally, Drummond wanted to clarify his remarks so as not to upset the fans who may have taken his initial tweet the wrong way.

Drummond's clarification states that he DOES care about the Pistons fans and recognizes the common goal with all parties involved is simply to win games. You can always score more, rebound more, etc., but Drummond's comments suggest trying to attain satisfaction from the fans is a tough task.

Drummond goes on to say that he isn't attempting to involve or speak for others, rather point out that as a basketball player the common goal is winning and ultimately achieving championships.

The Pistons big man has averaged 18.5 points, 17.8 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks in four games this season. Clearly, he has been a huge part of the Pistons' success, especially with those outrageous rebounding numbers. Detroit's success could continue to make noise within the Eastern Conference this season.
