I can see why they made that offer to Edwards. Now that he has officially taken Lee's spot, next up is frank Jackson. For a shooter, he's just terrible at shooting, and seems to take a ton of shots.

He is now my new target.

Edwards is not a bad player, he's just way too undersized

Carson has been a Piston for about 3 hours, and has already put up a better line, and run the team better then Lee ever has.

You can't make this kind of stuff up.

Hayes' passing this game has been outstanding. That last pass KO fumbled should have been an easy score and assist.

And should have gotten another for a wide open 3 that McGruder bricks.

Agreed. He just had another nice cross court pass that we missed on.

Agreed, and there were about 4 other instances that should/could have been assist for him. Was he the one that made that incredible full court pass to Livers that ended up being a foul?. I didn't see it fast enough to see who threw it but what a pass, a thing of beauty.

It seems like Hayes has more velocity on his passes than Cade does. He whips it, where Cade looks almost lazy half the time.

Haliburton has been impressive.

Indiana is so bad. We're playing without any big man, and they still can't beat us.

We're playing a total tank lineup in the 2nd half and pulling away with it. :sigh:

Pistons trajectory seems to be going just straight up from here on out.

How does everyone feel about Indiana? I like a few of their pieces, but am unsure what the gameplan there is exactly.

Their broadcasters are actually talking about it right now and basically just said the Pacers have tried to avoid it, but need to do what the Pistons are doing and going down in the draft in order to come back up. They're a lil bit stuck like the Pistons were, too good to tank but not bad enough to rebuild. Some nice pieces, but not fully committed to it.
