I just hate this offense. All we do its shoot 3's, when they are going in we look great but we dont have good enough shooters to look great from 3 consistently. We have Drummond and Reggie both who can score inside really well but we refuse to attack the basket.

He has that KCP feel for me - hustling, good defender, but spotty offensively. But he's a lot younger.


ya most definitely growing pains. Just sucks he has to go through this in the game we need him with KCP out

this, biggest difference between when we are good and bad is how often we get easy looks in the paint or force them to commit help side

The thing is Reggie is one of the best finishers in the league imo and sometimes he just refuses to attack the basket. Plus attacking the basket would lead to more offensive rebound chances for Dre.

I swear the Pistons luck into rebounds. Collectively they can't box out for s**t.

more so the Defenses take away the lane to the basket on the help side and RJ consistently fails to make them pay

You have to be impressed with Boston though, they've managed to assemble a hard working squad and they've got all the picks in the world coming to them. I'm jealous really

ain't that the truth, i really think that Dre's dominance on the boards has a negative impact on our team in regards to attacking the ball

Sometimes I wonder how we have the record that we have with how terrible of a defensive team we are. Every team we play gets wide open layups/3's mid range shots all game long.

i am not unless they do something with those picks. If they plan on drafting core players, then its going to be a while before they are legit contenders. Unless that someone is simmons. I think Bos is looking to win soon.

The best thing about this game is that I didn't pay to watch it. Well, outside of the cost of Direct TV. But I'd be paying for that anyway.

i think we do a great job of contesting 3's. We are horrible at contesting layups . Dre seems to consciously want to play d this quarter
