Flake can now be the point guard he always dreamed of becoming

Bobby Portis better than both Okafor and Plumlee

Blake Smiffin in full effect tonight

Im tempted to go watch some Blake game highlights from two years ago to compare the difference. He's moving around like he aged 5 years in a week.

Honestly I’m so down about this team right now. Think I need a break from watching. Feels bad man.

Blake Griffin... The most powerless power forward in nba history.... Only at the 3 point line and not in the zone... I feel bad for him

I had a dream yesterday.. Cannot say why or how and so on

But next years lineup

Jaren Jackson jr
Draymond Green
Josh Jackson
Jalen Suggs
Killian Hayes

Preseason I thought Blake just needed some time to get back into it but its clear to me now that isn't the case. I actually think he might just play out these next two years in Detroit and retire unless he wants to take a league minimum deal somewhere to ring chase. He's not even Pistons Antonio McDyess level athlete and Dice was a shadow of his former self when he came to Detroit compared to his early days in PHX and DEN.

We're the worst team in the league, but we've stayed close in a lot of games because we played really hard defensively.... but tonight we're going through the motions the defensive effort isn't there.

I think at the halfway mark this season we might only be 6-30.

Such a boring team to watch, wish we could fast forward to the draft

I'm not upset we're a bad team...it's the fact we wasted a #7 pick on a lemon player with no star potential. That will set us back more than anything.

Hopefully Saddiq works out so we got something this draft and then get a top pick next year. It is what it is.

If Blake doesn't improve he might be out of the league after this contract. He looks slow and he looks to be playing half-hearted. I wonder if he has another gear and is just being cautious coming back from injury?

Blake is cooked

$36 million for Blake
$9 million for Wright
$5 million for McGruder

Bey plays awesome in 6 minutes, but thats it.

Blake/Wright/McGruder, etc need to be cut and just pick up G-league guys. See what sticks.

Play Saben Lee, Bey, Sekou, Stewart big minutes.

Last years draft was tough. Was the weakest draft in years at the top. Hell Theringer had Hayes as the top prospect. Teams were trying to move out of the early picks it was so bad. Next years draft is where its at.

Clearly Killian Hayes was keeping this team down.
