The game felt really weird. I don't like this save-it-for-the-playoffs mindset right now. Hope that works out,

I do know that Cade at the four is not a real thing - he played JJJ fine and all that, but Pistons lost because they can't rebound and none of Cade, Ausar, or Font can play the four effectively when it's not Duren holding down the five.

I'm kind of hoping that Simone is dropped from the rotation for the playoffs. I appreciate his effort, but without the consistent shot or rebounding, he's going to be a real problem in his potential minutes.

Agreed the last handful of games arent encouraging. Like to see them step it up and be at peak level going into post season

Peak level is now what weve seen the last week or so.

Same. Would rather go big and let stew play some minutes backing up tobias with duren at center. Or go small and let ausar play there. Fontecchio hopefully lights it up though in the playoffs cause he has been brutal all year

Hopefully the game tomorrow, everyone is available to play, so the team can start getting some of that chemistry back.
