Bad 3 point shooting today and Cade taking the ball out is played out. Good game tho. In the grand scheme of things we’re where we need to be

I knew this was going to be a bad L when I saw them launching crazy 3s but only Beasley was hitting them.

Ausar Thompson changed the game, if he gets an extra 10 minutes, this is a W. Gotta sit Fonteccio for Ausar.

Ron Holland needs an extra 10 mins too, let THJ sit down and rest
You need 2-way wings, 2-way shooting bigs, and you can't allow low iq players on the court. Assist/turnover ratio is crucial. Shooting point guards are icing on the cake IF they are plus defenders.
Weaver & Casey, govern yourselves accordingly!

The Pistons aren't beating anybody in a playoff series. Be happy with a play-in win and merely making it to a playoff series, this team just doesn't have the talent right now to do much more than that.

Good game, that's all I have to say for this one after Trey Young made that last shot

Agreed, more minutes for Holland and Auser and less for Tek and THJ!

I remember early on he was someone people talked about as a guy at #5 in the Ivey draft but eventually it ended up being either Ivey or Keegan Murray who most people felt should be the pick. It was pretty clear that Daniels was a high upside guy who really got after it and was a disruptor on defense but I think people here were still banking on Killian Hayes being something an also wanted someone who could shoot the ball from deep.

If we make the play-in, we are a coin flip in any play-in game, so falling inot the lottery is still a possibility

We need someone to lead the bench so, so bad. It's enough to make a guy miss Corey Joseph ffs

It baffles me that Langdon hasn't done anything about this. Everyone knows this. It's also a hindrance to Cade (especially), and all the other players. Sasser was never a pg.. If anything, he should ONLY play with Cade, never without him. And when they have played together, the offense looks good.

If the rumor about a deal with NO is true, we better be getting someone like Alvarado.
