Lauri’s playing kind of soft. You’re not going to get too many calls in your favor playing that way.

Detroit big men controlled the paint on both sides of the court in that half.

At the half:
Stewart - 4 blocks
Duren - 19 points, 10 boards

Detroit with a 32—16 points in the paint advantage.

Its a little of both. They are definitely improved, but not as good as their current record.

5 of their 7 games ha e been at home. Lets see where they are at after a road trip.

He has been going right at them in the paint, totally disagree that he has been soft.

What a pass. Kat is having a great 2nd quarter.

Bad Keyonte making an appearance. This Pistons team is physical, I love it.

Love looks all of 60 but I do love him on this team lol

Contact above the shoulders is supposed to be a flagrant, right?

Ja 1-5 fg and 4 turnovers by the end of the 1st quarter is not ideal...

Just got the girls down, started watching game. Was Amen guarding Joy Morant most of the time, or have they been passive on switches?

I think so, even if it is inadvertent (which it obviously was).

Bailey needs some confidence, some shots falling will do wonders.

Pretty sure that's what Hardy was arguing.

I feel like Elijah Harkless would be a perfect bench player for this Pistons team lol

Holland just waltzed through minor resistance to an easy layup.

I think so. I wonder if because Keyonte moved into the path of the defender in the air if it isn't considered flagrant, i.e., it wasn't from an unnatural basketball movement from Ausar.

He's fun to watch. Kid's got balls as big as church bells.

babyjax13 · Post #78 » by **babyjax13** » Thu Nov 6, 2025 1:49 am

Stewart extending his arms and shoving Lauri away from the rebound, there is just nothing he doesn't get away with lol

babyjax13 · Post #79 » by **babyjax13** » Thu Nov 6, 2025 1:51 am

I like Nurk a lot, but you can't win many games with him starting at center. There is just no resistance at the rim.

babyjax13 · Post #80 » by **babyjax13** » Thu Nov 6, 2025 1:54 am

Rough game for Lauri, guess he doesn't want to get traded to the Pistons.

Who wins?
