I wouldn't hold this stuff against Duren at this point, right now I think a lot of the lack of effort on defense is an issue with him knowing he has to stay on the floor, with the lack of depth on the team, it's similar to Cade C, who takes breaks on defense also. Duren will be fine when he's playing meaningful games and isn't one of the few players on the team actually in the lineup.

I used to listen to Blaha on the radio covering the woeful pre-Isiah Dick Vitale-era Pistons, when few if any games were broadcast on TV, so I'll appreciate every minute he can give us.

I always read other comments from fans who stream their games with Blaha/Kelser and they have nothing but good things to say. "They call it like it is" and "fair" were words I used. "Respectful" was another.

I recall him gushing over Tripucka. Blaha is like the ultimate fan. It gets cheesy but much appreciated. He just loves the Pistons win, lose or draw.
