#18 - Pistons@Magic - 7pm ET 

Post#1 » by whitehops » Sat Nov 23, 2024 11:56 am

cade is out tonight after he fell on his tailbone last game and the magic have a top 3 defense... it 's going to be all hands on deck to create offense.

ausar is questionable though! if he doesn't play today it's looking like he'll return monday vs the raps.

im guessing daniss jenkins gets called up since we're thin at the point guard position with just ivey and sasser.

he's listed as out on the injury report, alondes williams and cole swider aren't so maybe they've been called up?

Ausar reportedly in his jersey and will do warmups with the team he'll be "available" to play tonight but I'm guessing we'll limit his minutes to just one short stint in each half if he is still working on getting his conditioning level back up to speed.

It would be nice to see Pistons win a game they weren't expected to after a few of these recent ones.

Just can't see it tonight. Ivey has been struggling. Duren has so often looked clueless defensively. The only real advantage I see for the Pistons is that Orlando doesn't have a quick one that will burn the Pistons, and the vets could step up in a slugfest.

I'd be happy to even see one half, especially with Cade out.. The games were horrible to watch last year when Cade was out.

(13) straight 3pt misses by THJ... Offense looks very rough without Cade

5 minutes in: wow the offense is cooking and smooth without Cade. Do we need him?

6 minutes in: Oh

Orlando play good defense, but if we can't hit our open threes then there's no chance this is a contest.

Are the announcers actually at the game or are they calling this game from home? Why tf they never know what was called?

Stewart's defense is terrific. So improved from last year.

Interesting we’re not going back to Ivey too quickly

Return to Detroit Pistons
