You should be like me my man, and really enjoy these last bunch of games. Think about it like this;
There is no pressure to win games, and the kids are playing a ton of minutes. Don't have to worry about a bad pick position yet, as the ping pong balls have yet to be picked. No worries about who to pick at a certain position, as again, it hasn't been picked yet!
Things are gonna get really frosty around here if the pick is crap.

Zeeb I agree, I for one have enjoyed this season more than any other. Even more so since Blake and Rose have been gone. I'm excited to see a win, and I'm excited when we lose. All I really want is to see good games from the young guys and we've seen plenty of it. We are pretty much locked into having the 3rd, 4th, or 5th worst record at this point I'm not really going to stress about our position moving forward because at the end of the day, to get a top 4 pick, you still need to get lucky and have your number chosen by the system and being 3rd, 4th, or 5th the %s for a top 4 pick aren't all that different. The only way I'll start to worry a bit is if we win a bunch and it looks like we fall to 6th behind Cleveland but I don't think we're heading for that path.

Awesome. Glas someone else is looking at it like I have been. The start was stressful. All of us were flummoxed by Weavers moves, and stressing the hell out. Then the Killian fiasco of being terrible for 7 games, and then gone for the majority of the season.
Now, and for the past few games, Bey has been awesome, Stewart looks like Ben Wallace, and Hayes is dishing dimes Piston fans haven't seen in a very long ass time. Hell,
I enjoy when our backup pg Lee enters a game, as he is yet another quality pick from Weaver.
The stress is gone, all the picks are panning out, and offseason pickups have been good. Fun bunch of games coming up, and like you, this last half of the season has been one of my favorites . Bey has really been awesome.

Hayes does get screwed out of assist. Wide open missed 3s from Grant and Ellington.

Not playing well. Pretty ugly. Grant and Jackson had a couple nice takes.

Hayes passes to a wide open Bey from 3 and he misses

Next year when the team has gelled, new draft guy, and a training camp, Hayes will average 8 apg. He's already 3rd amongst rookies.

Hayes is playing so much better then a box score would show

Hayes has downright amazing court vision.
CAN ANYONE HIT A SHOT?

So by my count, Hayes should have 38 assists this game.

Frank Jackson +15 kid signed off the street on a 10 day. Kid can just play.

Well two way because the Thunder let him out of his contract for whatever reason.

Yeah, at this point I think he definitely should be considered a bench piece for a playoff team

Rough game for Bey
