Amazing. Could watch this kid all day

Wooo, that got me fired up. Ausar is a menace.

The thing about catching teams on back to backs and cupcakes to pad the win total is it was US on those back to backs constantly to start the season off. We played one of the harder schedules at the beginning of the season, and now it's our turn to get fat just like our contemporaries did earlier in the season.

Yep, great point. I remember bringing that exact point up with a friend and he wasn't buying that it's hard for teams to play 2nd night. Peeps don't understand just the traveling aspect of going to different cities, time zones and sleep disruptions is exhausting. And then your legs aren't as fresh the day after as a team that's rested. I get they're spoiled younger guys that are athletes but still human

I know casual fans seem to only look at total points, but Ausar PREVENTS a lot of points and contributes to the offense in multiple ways (but love the dunks!)

Ausar got the belt tonight. Good to know.

.

Yeah, love Beasley and he had a great game, but Ausar was 100% the right choice for it

[Kalamazoo317]

Wonderful, I think we all got goosebumps watching the team defend.

Boston's 12 two point field goal was their fewest all time. Ausar can be a monster in another level.

And one thing about Cade, He was defending Porzingis. That's incredible.Point guard players who defend centers? (without being centers.)

Cade Cunningham. Love this team.

I’ll say it again, thibk Ausar can get a dpoy, yes with wemby be difficult but never say never

Wemby's not going to play 65+ games every year. There will be opportunities. Not to mention voter fatigue.

I was gonna say it, but didn’t. Lol

Just curious, why wouldn't he play 65 games every year?

Because I'm a Pistons nerd I was randomly browsing and re-read ESPN's recap for this game.
https://www.espn.com/nba/recap/_/gameId/401705402

Towards the bottom you see:

Key stat

Tatum, White and Pritchard combined to shoot 14 of 22 from the floor in the first half, going 11 of 15 on 3-pointers.

????

How is that the key stat in a game in which they lost by 20?

Lazy effing journalism

Every highlight of the game I've seen on ESPN shows Tatum breaking Cade's ankles. Not one shows Ausar breaking Tatum's. Even when they give the Pistons their due it's a little backhanded.

If Ausar had finished that play with a score, they would show it more

[MortSahlfan]

Ausar stars the game with a steal and dunk. Nice. I never get sick of dunks.
