Sounds like Jimmy Butler is out with an ankle sprain. I wonder if Ausar will play, and will we get Duren back to match up with BAM.

ausar is listed as out but duren is listed as available so we're at full strength at center.
should be a good game!

Glad Duren is back, but this game has Bam abusing him written all over it. Would be great to see Duren keep improving defensively. Bam will get his, but make him earn it and don't allow him to pull help off of the three point line.

Should be an interesting one in terms of seeing where we are at. Not a lot of creation in that heat lineup but a bunch of shooting. Can the pistons play discipline ball, stay at home on the shooters, and make sure all the jumpers are contested?

Yeah, visually I like it... but it's also kinda distracting during play.ComboGuardCity wrote:This court is not the best tv viewing experience

Nice movement on the offensive end and good job securing boards and getting out and running

I know that just about everybody scoffed at the trade at the time but Hardaway has been a good addition.

Originally I was a bit bummed we didn't lock up Font for three years at what I thought was a good value signing but now I am thankful its just two. Hopefully he gets it together, but its always a risk signing vet bench level players to 3+ years... he really played well in a contract year and he's set for life and he might just be ok with that.

THJ got it so bad on that... he's for sure going to be in concussion protocol for a bit if not worse.
