Giannis will set a record for 3s but we’ll inexplicably win. Giannis and Stewart will fight for the game ball

We made 4 3-pointers in our last game, I think it was a 4/21 effort.
Im sure the fleet-footed vertically gifted Stewart should have no problem shutting down Giannis and hitting open 3's left and right while Cade has a Chris Paul like efficient triple double. I can barely wait to see these heroes leave it all on the court ala Lindsey Hunter and Dennis Rodman efforts all around!

Oh and Im sure our genius Monty will be right on the spot ready to exploit and take advantage of every opportunity to create mismatches and gain momentum, genius evaluator and locker room maestro that he is.
I can barely wait, give us more please!

#1 - Enough jump-passed. They are ALWAYS turnovers. Unless you're MJ, Kobe, or Lebron
#2 - Enough of the fcking 3's... Take a better shot. Killian, I'm liking the mid-range. Automatic 2 points. Now, do it some more.

Just play hard. The body language on almost everyone is bad.. I'd play Sasser 15 minutes every night, but it's the only thing Monty hasn't tried, so I know he won't do it... Maybe it's also his demeanor, but Monty's body language is indifference, disgust, and stubbornness (expressionless facial personality attributed)

If the Pistons win tonight you can’t watch until they lose again!

See you Monday.

I still have the pass for a few more days but I think I'll skip this one.

Early Christmas present to myself.

Lots of rumors surrounding the team going for OG, or *barf* Tobias right now. The team gave up last night, and tonight is going to be the final straw, I guarantee it.

If you ever wanted to watch a sports related war crime, tune in tonight.

Tom Gores and the rest of the front office?

I couldn't even imagine trading a young piece like Ivey for OG and then having him either get a massive $200+ million deal from us this summer as a max contract guy or leave us for nothing this summer. Either way is real bad IMO. I'm not so sure he's the franchise changer we need at this point. That doesn't mean I wouldn't be happy to sign him in FA to a big deal..... but if we have to trade for him and give up assets and then we're still awful with him he's going to leave for nothing no doubt.

No one should want to be here. As soon as Cade get his extension I am expecting him to demand a trade and I expect Bojan to be bought out after the deadline if we don't trade him.

No way we trade Ivey. I still think that Bojan to Knicks trade has some legs. We send Bojan/Hayes to the Knicks. Knicks send Quickley our 1st to the Raptors we get Fournier and OG.

Bagley starting, is stewart out?

tradez401 · Post #15 » by **tradez401** » Sat Dec 16, 2023 11:12 pm

its still crazy we're starting killian instead of ivey.

I like Wiseman being aggressive to score (outside of shooting jumpers). He actually is pretty offensively skilled, we should explore that more.

guldakot · Post #17 » by **guldakot** » Sat Dec 16, 2023 11:36 pm

Every single play should be attacking the rim. I dont care if the team gets blocked, we cant shoot anyways. Live in the paint.

Stewart is out with a left shoulder sprain.

Did we finally send Stewart to the bench where he belongs?

Down 24 before the start of the second quarter. Williams needs to coach better, right?
