Im imagining a consolidation trade in decemeber, we have alot of players with decent potential, could be a chance to help a team out that starts out slow or has injury issues and maybe get some draft capital.

Nice seeing Casey leave Pickett out there. Let’s see what he’s got.

Can't ever count Weaver out of making deals, seems like he is a deal making machine.

Saben again with the three. Now if he can just run the offense.

Yea baby. Proud of Saben Lee. He worked hard on his three point shot.

What is Picketts wingspan? Dude is almost touching the rim standing it seems like

I wish Beef stew would just grab the board instead of always trying to knock it out to the backcourt

Josh really looks like hes thinking out there and trying to be a team player, moving the ball well and not forcing anything. Could this be the year where he actually starts to realize his potential?

Thibbs looks like he's going to **** his pants, or at least trying to. Good competitive game tonight.

Doing this with 3 of the 5 starters out. Much better defense tonight.

That’s the toughness that they had last year. Glad they still have it. Grant is such a good defender.

I admit I was expecting Pistons to fold when a team played real defense, but credit to them, playing hard, a lot more focused. It helps to not have Killian out there and Saben Lee has played much more within himself this game.

Pistons just don't have a real rebounder, so these long lineups make a ton of sense. Pistons are winning the rebound battle for the first time this preseason.

Saben Lee still need to improve a lot, but I like him, the guy can play, he deserves regular minutes. I also like Trey Lyles. Pickett is very active and is playing well.

Pistonrings · Post #57 » by **Pistonrings** » Thu Oct 14, 2021 12:33 am

Also they haven't spent 5 days since the last game, I think that obviously hurt them against Memphis

Other then his tendency to get into no-mans land right at the rim hes really improved his game. With Saben its all decision making at this point.

Stewart has been rusty, he’s starting to get it back. He was out for like three months with that severe ankle injury

As I was saying.... ffs Saben :/
