Unbelivable 

Post#1 » by pistons4ever » Wed Jan 11, 2023 6:57 pm

Sorry guys but whats Up with your obsession to trade ivey after 40 games?

Pistonpowered hat a proposal that we could trade ivey +bogda for oG anunoby?!?!!

Here are many who want to trade him too

He ist a rookie WHO already gives US 15,4 and 4

Of cause he makes mistakes, his shot selection is not good...but hey look at other rookie saisons of some of the better guards in the history of NBA

And we pistons fans have a good example already in town...Killian looks in His 3rd season like a NBA player....Jaden ist miles ahead in his rookie season than Kilian was


Relax!!!!

Take the quickest development curve ever and that’s the expectation for all players by the Eeyores on this forum.

95% of the people here are blown away with his quickness and athleticism and understand he's still a young rookie. He's actually shot ok from 3 for us he hasn't been Cade bad or Killian bad starting out. I think one of his biggest problems is just slowing down at the rim when finishing once he figures that out a bit more he'll be even more of a weapon with that quick first step. Defense hopefully will improve once he has gotten to play against everyone and really has the time to study film. He has the athleticism to be a plus defender its just about mindset and learning.

I'm still really high on Ivey and still think he has all-star potential. I did expect him to be a little bit more polished coming in because he is a two year college player (basically same class as Cade) but I think overall his skillset just still needs a lot of work because he was so accustomed to being able to simply use his athleticism to dominate at the college level.

That said, moving forward its really about his work ethic and desire to improve and be a great player... he seems like will be the type of player to put it together. 16/5/5 with better slightly %s, slightly fewer TOs and better defense the 2nd half of the season would be great after he put up 14/4/4 for the first half of his rookie season.

I don't want to trade him at all. I want him to play and earn his way into being a starter, not just get minutes because he's a high draft pick. He needs to play better than Alec Burks, and he has all the tools to do that.

Ivey is out of control a lot but he’s a freaking rookie. Getting good experience this year. Cade, Ivey and Duren should be untouchable. Stewart pretty close to untouchable. We’re doing the rebuild right. If we make the right moves and get a little lottery luck this summer, it should be playoffs starting next year.

Pistonpowered is a website designed to get clicks. I'm sure no one in the Pistons FO is looking to put Ivey on the trading block anytime soon.

to be fair, and I don’t want to trade ivey at all, OG is an absolute blue chip player right now that every team in the league is going to call about. The value on him has never been higher

Silliness on this board? Say it ain't so!

Ivey is hyper athletic and aggressive. The latter gets him in trouble at times, but it will serve him well in the long run. If Ivey stays healthy, he has a bright future going forward IMO.

Requisite post pointing out how silly the title sounds with its current spelling; making folks instantly have bias towards the rest of its content before reading another word.

In this case the bias was warranted however.

Sentence fragments / incomplete ideas as titles of threads are also big red flags that the OP content or theme of the thread is generally going to be awful / not well thought-out.

This one just happens to be extra special and do both.

Endless pathetic hot takes. It's the norm now, unfortunately.
