Before games of note. The Warriors(18-18) are coming into the LCA, with a worse record then the Pistons.(19-18) Talk about a different era.

GAMES OF NOTE.(bolded have a direct impact on Pistons pending results)

Warriors @ (19-18)Pistons(8th seed)

Timberwolves @ (22-16)Magic(4th seed)

(18-17)Heat(7th seed) @ Jazz

(19-18)Hawks(9th seed) @ Suns

Pistons could absolutely move up to the 7th seed tonight.

Warriors have been uneven and looking for answers. This feels like a very winnable game... but they still have this dude named Steph Curry who has won more and at a higher level than our entire roster combined. And I can totally see Green getting under Stews skin and him doing something stupid. At least Cade should be relatively well rested.

Draymond’s crazy but not an idiot. He won’t provoke Stewart.

They aren't going to actually fight.
If green can get stew to blow up and get ejected, he'll do it.
Stew needs to get on top of that.

i still remember after we cut blake griffin, every time after that he knew exactly what to do to provoke stew and (with some theatrics) he got him ejected like three games straight lol.

I love Stew, but he's too important to get kicked out of games, but also to have a bad reputation. I've listened to almost every other team's announcers, and they all mentioned how tough he is, hard he plays, Lebron, but a few more incidents, and the refs and others won't be saying the same things.

I've noticed/loved the Italian gesture made by Simone and the bench after Simone scores.

Good start, good energy. Wild to see Duren leading the break, and lobbing to Cade.

Why in the HELL is Wendell JR on the floor?

Might have to cut him, to stop Bickerstaff from using him. Is Holland sick?

Well, we’re struggling, but it’s nice to see Holland hit some jumpers.

Natalie Kerwin somehow managed to say "like" superfluously 20 times in a 2 minute interview. And they get paid a lot for their wonderful speech. Crazy society.
