Hard pass on Gallo. Whoever repaired his knee botched the job, and went from an average athlete to a piss poor one. Doesn't have the lift on his jumper anymore and that has suffered. Literally zero incentive to acquire him and take on that much salary.

Monday, March 9th. Pistons down to 2.1%. Here's where the story ends......

If it gets back above 5% I'll start it back up, but after last night I think our chances are pretty much extinguished.

Coming in October - 2016 Push for the Playoffs Thread!

"Basically, this is our fourth team, literally our fourth team, that we've gone with," he said. "And so I thought we got to the point, after Christmas, where we started to really build some chemistry and stuff, and now we've got four new guys again. So it's hard."You can't discount that, especially when you're playing in as many close games as we have, and that's got to be hurting you a little bit. So we've got 20 to go, and we've got to play a lot better in those 20, and that's all you can focus on and not get too caught up in the frustration of six straight losses."

for those of you hard headed posters that want to act like we have had the same team all year. SVG thinks your wrong

15-5 to finish the season have a chance... maybe even need to go 16-4... It would take an epic run now.

With just 11 games to go, we need to finish 10-1 to have a decent shot at making the playoffs. 11-0 would almost certainly get us in, while 10-1 might get us in. 8 of our last 11 games are against below .500 teams.

Lose two more games, and we're out of the playoff picture for sure.

Lol, I almost posted this morning, as we're up to 2.5% per Hollinger. I'll post daily updates if we get back above 10%, otherwise, enjoy the rest of our season, as our ping pong balls travel west to Sacramento.......

Lol at the East and the fact were still a chance after losing 10 straight. The Sixers and Twolves losses will probably end up being the difference, now we're playing well again.

Honestly as much as i have moved on from monroe, if we make the playoffs we most definitely goin to need him. i hope SVG realizes we are a better team with him as a center off the bench

We still have a tough road, but weird things happen at the end of the season. If we can go 9-1, we should be in. Unfortunately, more likely we end up 5-5 down the stretch. Current predictions (with win-loss for remaining games)

14 New Orleans - Screwed - better record but no playoffs
13 Phoenix - Screwed - better record but no playoffs

#8 Brooklyn 38-44 7-4 (last playoff spot in the East)
12 Indiana 36-46 5-5
11 Utah 35-47 4-6
10 Boston 34-48 2-8
9 Charlotte 34-48 4-7
8 Detroit 33-49 5-5
7 Denver 31-51 3-6
6 Sacramento 31-51 5-5

This is based on us performing as follows:

Sun, Mar 29 @ Miami Loss 28 45
Tue, Mar 31 vs Atlanta Loss 28 46
Wed, Apr 1 @ Charlotte Loss 28 47
Fri, Apr 3 @ Chicago Loss 28 48
Sat, Apr 4 vs Miami Win 29 48
Wed, Apr 8 vs Boston Win 30 48
Fri, Apr 10 vs Indiana Win 31 48
Sun, Apr 12 vs Charlotte Win 32 48
Mon, Apr 13 @ Cleveland Loss 32 49
Wed, Apr 15 @ NY Knicks Win 33 49
