Ausar is questionable. Brunson is questionable.

How bad is Ausar's "adductor injury"?

[MortSahlfan]

Still listed as Questionable, day-to-day... I hope he plays. He needs to get into a rhythm. I think he had a great game before Boston. He did something positive on 5-10 plays.

If I was the coach, I'd keep the starting line-up, and if THJ isn't making shots, send him to the bench immediately and let Ausar (and Simone) get more of his minutes. Simone is a better player than THJ on both ends, and THJ seemed to have stopped drawing charges after his injury.. I would even cut a few of Holland's minutes. He's an energy guy, where someone like Simone needs more rhythm. He's also a good passer, smart player overall.

[MortSahlfan]

Great 1st quarter. If we defend, we have enough young guys to score easily in the fast break.

It seems that as long as were not playing Boston and Milwaukee we can play with anyone. I know they are down Towns, but I am loving how the Pistons came out against the Knicks after that early season abomination.

Beasley may be on one tonight....

Great start

Cade is dropping assists

Wish we shot this well vs Bucks. Wow we on fire

[ValvPiti]

Doncic-esque performance by Cade. Spectacular game so far

[coordinator0]

What in the hell is wrong with Duren? Dude is useless right now.

[MotownMadness]

Cade playing amazing

[MortSahlfan]

9 assists, 0 turnovers for Cade and is hitting every shot.

Missed a couple of rebounds he normally gets. When he cant rebound, he's useless.

But I dont know. Hopefully get gets it going again...

Cade looks like a legit star out there. We've been scrambling hard on defense and we've been hitting shots overall can't ask for much more up to this point but you know a NY run is coming eventually. It'll be interesting to see if we can close out a close game in the 4th.

[MotownMadness]

We’re hurting without Cade out there

[MortSahlfan]

Ivey single-handedly is fcking up on both ends..

[bstein14]

Ivey sure knows how to string bad play after bad play... Just brutal to finish out that 3rd when NY upped the pressure.

We might need Cade + Beasley + THJ + Tobias + Stew a bunch this fourth quarter to finish it out.

Ivey and duren are both off with the fairies. They need to lock in if Detroit wants to win.
Ivey isn't playing with patience he's just running and getting stuck in bad spots and duren just isnt there mentally.

He didn't pass once, got his shot blocked 3 possessions in a row, turned it over 4 times... Isn't playing defense. He and Duren have been playing like **** lately and wouldn't be guys I'd pay much to re-sign. Trade them for proven players.

[MortSahlfan]

Cade comes in for Ivey and Pistons go on a 14-2 run
