I wouldn't say this is a must win but it's a must win.

In a perfect world we bring a similar effort and defensive intensity that we had against BOS and then hit some more shots and should be a blowout. In reality we will drop this one and go 4-3 and the sky will start falling.

First 2 shots of the game are Dre and Stanley bricked 3's

Sigh AD and SJ with bricked 3 pointers as our first 2 shots

Great, Drummond and SJ shooting 3's..... Gonna be a long season

Dre got bailed out by the refs on that banzai like drive

Blake's body control is incredible

The nets started horribly and are still on pace for more than 30 this quarter...

Jesus we suck so bad right now

Nice to see Bruce knock that 3 down

Brown for 3.

If Bruce can develop even a serviceable shot, that guy is a player.

Bruce Brown >>>>> SJ.

We're terrible.

And folks will keep on defending Dre here because he'll put up a padded 20-20 game once in a while. Rebounds =/= Defense.

Casey is the wrong coach for Drummond.

all 5 Nets had eyes on Blake and collapsed on him when he got in the paint, no other Piston had any movement.

Sad

We just have no one who can hit shots consistently

Foolish attitude !

Record when Dre attempts a three: 3-0
Record when Dre doesn't attempt a three: 1-2

COLD. HARD. FACTS.

Dre just doesn't value every possession and its hard to be a teammate of a player like that. Its hard to go to work and defend every time down the court when you have a player that makes bonehead decisions with the ball on the other end. It just feels like we will never be a really good team with Dre as a major piece unless he's willing to play the garbage man role, defending, setting screens, rebounding, etc. When he puts the ball on the floor or tries to post up its usually ending in a TO or a bad shot.

Our defense is back to being horrible and our offense still sucks really really badly.
