WTF is Olynyk doing

Somebody ought to just tape a "kick me" sign to Olynyk.

This may be KO's worst game as a Piston

Down 14 with 10 to go... Feels like we need to run now or it'll be over soon.

I’m pretty sure that’s what his hair and goatee naturally indicate

Hopefully Cade is back tomorrow night against Boston. Then we'll get another chance @ Minny on Sunday for our 3rd game in 4 nights. Just 3 more games before the trade deadline.

Every time Bey does that dribble side step reset for apparently no reason, it's like a guarantee he's not going to make the shot.

Anyone know what Cojo was waiting for there, whilst having his back to an open Frank? Haha

Wo are down just five with a little over a minute left and someone use up 21 seconds of the clock to get Bey a highly contested layup swated out of bounds. We deserve to get the L if that's our crunch time offense. CoJo over dribbling for sure.

If Olynyk didn't step into the court tonight, this would've been a 20 points win for us. This is how bad he was.

Did Casey already use that challenge? Seems like there have been a few questionable calls down the stretch here we could have won.

Job well done then....we don't need to win this game. I'd prefer any wins for the rest of the season comes with Cade leading the charge and with him being out, why waste an opportunity for a great loss?

I’ve only been half paying attention and was wondering the same thing

Just to a chance to check in on the game. My son texted me and just said, "KO, absolutely horrible tonight". Has he been real bad?

Yep. That was no exaggeration.

I thought the team as a whole played pretty well against a quality team for like three quarters and a stretch towards the end of the fourth. But we took a big dump in a lot of the fourth. Was impressed at how well we rebounded, and Frank, Bey, and Grant all had nice games. Agreed that KO was off all around. Pretty rough game for Hayes as well. It was nice to see Haimi still making an impact in more limited minutes. I think if Cade played, we'd win this one, which tells me we're closer to being competitive with this lineup than folks might think.
