Trae young trying to stop Rose from driving is gonna be a mess.

Also makes me happy that Sekou is looking better than both their top 10 forwards.

My fear, for the first time I can remember in all the years I've watched the Pistons, is the team going on a win streak and making the playoffs because booya really ramps up, making this team that much better. People forget that this team had a glaring hole, and he is filling it now. Sure, key pieces are injured giving him free reign, but it's also a blessing.

I have never rooted for the Pistons to lose but now that booya is turning out to be a real gem, I want that top 5 pick to pair with him and I'm afraid he will get this team winning on a consistent basis and screw it all up.

:lol: what a **** up set of circumstances. Yay your great sekou! Slow it down! Slow it down damn it!

I think what’s really discouraging is that we move up multiple spots every time we win.

The problem is that we’d have the second worst record if we were out west. Making the playoffs would cost us like 6 draft positions.

I swear it happen every time we're penciled in for the lottery. All the Drummond, Monroe, Knight, Johnson drafts were years where we were **** all year and then when on miraculous win streaks towards the end of the year when it didn't matter anymore and just messed up our lottery odds.

Rose and Keef are tank killers. If we're not careful we'll make the playoffs

Man our frontcourt between wood and sekou going forward is looking really nice. This team with a real floor general (I love Rose but hes a score first pg) could be amazing down the road. I really want Cole Anthony in the draft, but were probably going to be picking 15th again :/

Man, talk about guys not as good as their stats. Trae Young is not ready for prime time, at least he doesn’t look it now.

This team's too good to get a top 5 pick.

Last season's Blake with this cast wouldve been interesting, prob a 6 seed at least.

DRose has been the most pleasant surprise. I really hope we trade him to a team with a chance to win.
