Pre-Season #3 - Pistons@Cavs

How the hell does Paul Reed last in the NBA? The guy can't shoot

I know it’s always higher, but our pre-season turnover rate has been insanely bad.

Seems like we’ve shot pretty well overall, though.

[MortSahlfan]

I had no idea Paul Reed was 26. Lanier will be 24 soon. I thought Reed was 32.

Jenkins just ain't it. Sorry bud. As bad as Sasser is, at running the point in spot minutes, Jenkins is worse.

Ducan Robinson been trash
Ausar has been trash
JB has been trash sitting guys for no reason

Might be worth keeping in mind, when drawing conclusions, that this is preseason.

The diff is a stupid idea. Please get rid of it

Feature for people who can't do mathz gud.

So Ivey is hurt already after one half of a preseason game? Awesome. I know they gotta ramp him up but hoped for more than this, gonna be rusty as hell in the regular season.

[Neptune]

Not sure what i watched tonight, but let's hope that doesn't happen in the real season. Ausar didnt look like a point forward and Holland looks more like a role player not a sixth man. We might have more work to do.

Annual reminder that very little conclusions can be made from pre-season games.

Could be said for most teams without their 2 best players….but that team was disgusting last night without Cade/Ivey.

The Daniss Jenkins experiment has run its course. Safe to say we can fill that spot with someone with an actual chance of making an impact. I think if we give any of these fringe guys the 15th roster spot, Tolu makes the most sense.

If Ivey is our 2nd best player now, we're in a world of trouble.

"Best" probably isn't the right word. They are our primary ball handlers in both the starting and bench units though. With both of them out, it definitely illustrated our lack of a true backup or 3rd string pg.

Ivey will be the reason the team regress imo. I love the guy as a person. I'm speaking strictly basketball

It's preseason, who cares? Why can't JB sit guys in preseason?

[MrBigShot]

Pre season is a glorified scrimmage. Means little to nothing, it's just mins to get some reps in and start getting used to the cardio required.

[MotownMadness]

I wouldn’t even bother playing Cade anymore. He looks ready for the season to start.
