Any idea if Luke is back for this one as well? Is Blake 100% playing or just probable for tonight?

I see the preview said that yesterday Blake was "questionable" and Luke was "doubtful" for today so its probably unlikely Luke is playing. I almost wish they would have sat Blake another game if he still isn't close to 100% because at this point its not worth the injury risk.

I'm still having trouble soaking in that winning record. I feel like I'm dyslexic or something.

We could rest Blake. I think we only need a couple more wins to make the playoffs and we should beat the Knicks and hopefully Memphis and even Charlotte.

No. Not until you lock the playoffs up. Then you can decide of seeding is important enough to play the big guns.
Lock first. Win the next two, and that should do it.

He's out anyway. Kennard is playing, though.

We got **** when we rested him against Cleveland, it doesn't really matter anymore. We will be in the playoffs.

The NBA gonna have to come up with a VAR system or straight up fine these refs for stupid calls.
If a player dares says something about the refs, a 25K fine is automatic. But these refs making horrible calls night in and night out and getting away with no consequence.

Just wondering, I know everybody thinks you gotta shoot 3's or you're useless, but is there no such thing as a 15 foot pull up anymore?

Last I heard the magic number was 4 and that was before Orlando lost the other night

The Pistons' team defense is pretty bad. They get by on individual man-to-man performances.

It's embarrassing and frustrating how flimsy Thon Maker is with the ball.
