Didn't see a thread for this so here it is.

Noah was a tough match up last season so will be curious to see how the big man battles play out.

No Jennings or Stuckey tonight and no Idea if Rose will be playing.

I may edit this post later to fill in the blanks if I am motivated.

anyway...

Any TV? And by the way why the hell is Pistons preseason synched up with Tigers postseason. They've played on the same day all preseason.

Im on the fence, and I need some help. I don't currently have cable TV, and its now the 11th hour(Yeah, I waited this long)and I have a decision. League pass seems worthless, and pointless, and I would have to change my IP constantly, and cable seems expensive.

I have given some thought to getting a slingbox though, and hooking it up to someone I know box. Does anyone know if he will have to get another cable box for this to work, or can he watch tv while I watch the game, e.t.c.?

Just cannot justify paying around 100$ per month just to watch Pistons games. I would love to be able to use online pass, but they black out games locally. (Just asinine) I work at my computer most of the time, and its becoming a pain in the ass.

Its on league pass on cable.

What really pisses me off is det isnt getting any love from the league for them to put us on the list for televised preseason games,we have gone against heat,nets,and now chi and none of it gets televised,comeon.

You should just use the free streams online. The last game was not the norm for quality. Usually they are pretty good and rarely freeze. They used to freeze all the time but it seems like technology has caught up and they are pretty stable nowadays.

I think its on Gores to get them televised. Its something to do with the TV deal they have with FSD. Fortunately tonights game is televised by Chicago so the online streams will be normal broadcasts, not the jumbotron feed again

Yeah it dosent help that the tigers have a tv deal with fsd and its playoff baseball,I was soooo close to buying league pass from my cable provider today just for the game,but relized the streams arent that bad and once the season begins 99% of pistons games will be on fsd or nba tv and it isnt worth 200 just to catch a couple of preseason games on my tv .

This is the most excited I've been for a season of Pistons basketball in a long time. I swear the only reason to watch last season was to get a glimpse of what Andre could potentially become. We haven't had a big man worth getting excited about since the last time we had the #2 overall pick.....oops.....did I just go there? Oh well. I want to see how this trio of frontcourt players comes along and grows together. Just the defensive potential has me intrigued. Not too happy about Jennings being out for next 3 weeks. Bummer. Oh well, here is to a great season and much excitement in the upcoming weeks.

no chauncey either. whats going on. we assumed missing the game against mia, and then possibly even bkn was just so he isnt playing too much and getting his rest. but now hes missing a game a week later? please dont tell me he is actually hurt ALREADY.

I can't say that I'd really be surprised if he were, can you?

thats just it, i knew he would get hurt.. but i thought itd take more than one blowout game. gotta hope hes not and hes just sitting out because its preseason, but if thats all his doing, it wouldnt make sense to miss this one after 4 days since the last game.

Well, I guess for now. Ill have it figured once the season starts I hope. I have done that for one game, and I couldn't find it, I had to have a PM sent(Thanks for those that did!)

I just wish Sports teams would get with the 21st century, and allow us to stream the damn thing without blackouts and B.S. TV is a dying enterprise, time to move on...

Zeeb, you've been around for awhile and everytime I see your Kwame pick I chuckle. I've read posts from you since the Darko debacle. UGH. At least Drummond is for real this time......

not surprised at all with the Darko mention. You were like his only fan and even followed him from team to team, forum to forum.

Glad to see you back on the DET boards though and Dre will be way more worth following.

I swear I have ptsd from Darko.

Drummond better be as good as he seems to be, my fragile basketball heart cant take another hit like that.

Speaking of which, im not asking anyone to PM me anything, just maybe send me a special greeting in the form of a PM...

I don't care if it's preseason, we must beat the Bulls.

Drummond is a great off the ball defender but looks weak as an on the ball defender

WHOA BLOCK BY DRE!
pope in very early. thank you cheeks.

no spacing. monroe-drummond-smith will not work.
