It must be tough to be a Pistons fan these days.

That is one terrible lineup.

Yep, but the Blazers' isn't that much better, and lord know, I doubt if the Pistons' replacement are worse than the Blazers'. Any team with Swanigan and Gabriel as your center and PF replacements can not be favored over any NBA team.

I feel a little bit bad for Derrick Rose being on a resetting team.

I wish the Blazers had him on the roster. I know Lillard really looked up to him...would certainly solve the backup PG position. Alas, it'll never be.

The Blazers dropped some games early this season to truly awful teams so no game can be taken for granted.

Detroit is godawful though.

It must be tough indeed for Derrick Rose but He'll be okay in the long run when he gets paid by a
contending team.

Meanwhile, there is no sign of Nurk returning and its unclear when Zach if coming back. This is the
team that is likely the team we will finish the season with. Lottery team we will be

One excellent quarter, one damned awful quarter following it. Too often.

In the NBA, it's so important to win the FT line. Blazers down 10, same as the FT make disparity.

double teaming of McC when Blazers have their subs in the game has been deadly.
