Did Mark also disown his brother, Paul when he became a 'Murican?

This dude Cook on the Pistons has literally cost Cade 6+ assists at this point, beyond trash.

This team desperately needs a lead dog on offense. If Suggs can be that while being good defensively, it will outdo Barnes projection of being a prime Draymond. But who says that Barnes can't be more like Giannis than Draymond so ultimately time will tell.
I don't see Suggs ever being a #1 option on a title team. He doesn't have the athleticism or shooting or shot creation to be on that level. He'd have to reach 100% of his potential to get to that level. I think Jrue is a realistic comparison. #3 guy on a champion who provides elite guard defense.

I absolutely cannot wait for Fultz, Cole Anthony and Suggs to share the rock.

It will be hilarious.

Fultz and Suggs don't seem like a good duo as both need the ball in their hands to be their best. Let's see if Suggs can be good enough to make Fultz expendable.

Doris is more Canadian than Jones

How are the Pistons losing to OKC? They are technically playing 75% of their roster right now.

I am not sure.

Such a stark contrast between Paul and Mark. Paul comes off as a gentleman. Mark comes off as a douche.

Jalen Green looked great compared to Mobley, but Cleveland is hot garbage team wise. That needs to be taken into account. Barnes and Malachi pair up great. I see Barnes being a great second in command to the team. Now if the Raps can draft or land a superstar or elite talent they could really take off in the next few years. Pascal can revert back to being the number 3 guy which suits his role.

Scottie Barnes had a better debut than Cade Cunningham and Evan Mobley.

Jalen Green's scouting is reminding me of the same thing that happened to Luka, but not as bad because he was 2nd pick.

They were both putting up crazy numbers as 18-19 year olds in a grown man's league (Euro/G-League) and yet they were overlooked in the draft to some degree. Like it doesn't get any more obvious than that to know if a prospect is legit or not imo. Green is no doubt going to be a top 5 scorer in this league

You know normally I’d agree. But it’s also OKC who lost their star rookie after 5 minutes. They’re literally losing to Theo Maledon :lol:

Hayes is a really bad draft pick by supposedly a very good talent evaluator. The Pistons hit on Saddique Bey and Isiaih Stewart but the Killian Hayes pick horrible.

He will be scoring tons, no doubt.

The question will be whether he raises his teammates and makes them better.

We have seen many a great scorers come through the League, and the ones that elevate their teammates is rare. The difference between being a scoring champ and winner.

Hayes still sucks lol

Yeah, true. Or definitely should be an asset to acquire an elite talent or high draft pick.

It's still super early. Everyone was so worried and concerned with LeMelo Ball early on in the season cuz he was shooting poorly and keep turning it over. Every Raptors fans were saying how Flynn is better than Ball. Cunningham is a top prospect for a reason. he will figure it out as the season goes on and we'll be talking ROTY.
