Maybe Stan knows Monroe is definitely leaving now and is just moving forward without him already.

Hes shown hes capable of rising his game when the team is on point.The kid is a 2nd year player,and unless your shaq,jordan,bird,etc,your not going to come into this league avg all star numbers your 2nd year.

Wasn't that great! Loved the attitude.

KCP is playing a much better all around game of late. Taking it hard to the basket, and looking for the midrange shot when it's there. Not perfect or as consistent as we'd all like. However, saying his game is unchanged since his arrival seems wrong to me. Kid works so hard. Playing defense on actual 3s has to be tough for a guy that really is built to be a 2.

i think its a combination of both

We aren't making the playoffs so moose potentially gettin hurt in meanless games doesn't make sense.
We don't plan on retaining moose, so lets put meaning into these meaningless games

He has been streaky before actually this season, HOWEVER

during this streak he's
played pg (period)
he developed a ability to create a shot for himself off the pump fake
Attacked the basket as often
gotten out in transition as often

KCP is streaky, but this recent streak really has shown that KCP is capable of much more than a 3 and D player. IF you dn't see that, you haven't been paying attention

Like I keep saying, give KCP more time. He's only a second year player for crying out loud! He has been mixing his game up masterfully between shooting the 3, pulling up for the midrange jumper, and driving to the rim. His newfound confidence in driving to the rim has been the biggest reason for his recent play imo. I've noticed that he is also finishing around the rim much more smoothly as opposed to spasing up shots in the paint like he used too.

She contradicted herself the entire broadcast, Defined players as one thing but when they did another acted like she knew it. definitely was bias on a ton of foul calls. .............we are so blessed to have our broadcasters

Yeah, I hate when players come up with these gestures. They are cringeworthy. At least it isn't as awful as that stupid gesture Harden does. That may be the worst one yet.

i actually love Harden's "cooking" gesture. Pretty creative. I don't mind players showing emotion, that attitude is what makes players. i mind players who suck doing it, and i mind players who emulate complete douche bags. i like Caron's telephone gesture when he calls from long distance.

Reggie played a decent game tonight and K. Gordon had a streaky hot day like usual. Good win Pistons!

For the record, if we end up allowing Moose to walk we better offer a max deal to Kevin Love. I would prefer to keep Moose, but I can understand why he wouldn't want to play for SVG/Gores.

She was awful. Every time Jackson raised his arm, as Avery was constantly committing reach-in fouls, she would cry foul.

Boston is usually a ridiculously biased announce team, but she was just bad in general.

This is very true, KCP has always had stretches of great play. I really am hoping that he's turned the corner but at the same time, I'm not holding my breathe since KCP is incredibly streaky and usually follows good stretches with bad ones. If he can manage to put it all together, he can be good though, we really do need more production from our wings- thats usually the difference between wins and losses for us.

If we're going to build around Reggie, KCP, and Dre, we might as well RUN. Moose can't really run.

I think Moose is actually really good out in transition for a big. The stats back it up to:

He's pretty fast in a straight distance for a big in the open court, he just doesn't move his feet well laterally.
