And for our halftime speech..

Our coach says.....

Guys don't worry we all are due to make these 3s..

Keep shooting.. And shooting.. And shooting..

And defense and boxing out all optional tonight...
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I dont think so. They rip off 5 or 6 wins immediately after it they and most people will forget it


No we won’t. We will remember this for years.


I won't remember this next week man. If you remember regular season games for years that's insane

This would be the worst regular season loss of the post KG era. Hands down.

This is on the coach and whoever's leading the players.

Honestly Joe should be fired if they lose this game I'm not even joking. That's how bad it is

Does anybody honestly think they will make a comeback and win this game? I don't.

16% from three. Is that the lowest they shot in a game this season?

Cuuningham is the only guy that can rack up points, and we're playing no defense on him. Double him and not a single other Piston would be able to sustain much offense. Great defensive scheme here, Joe. The guy is getting easy shots, trip after trip down the floor.

If this is not grounds for a coach to be fired - leading the league in the standings and being blown out by a 2-27 league worst team, at home - i don't know what is.

Tatum has been pathetic this season and people are saying he’s good because he’s unselfish.

LMFAO

In 29 games, the Pistons haven't beaten an over .500 team yet this year.

I don't for the simple fact that Boston isn't taking this game seriously and it's one of those games where they're not hitting threes.

They likely make a fake come back in the second half but lose

They shot 16%? I could swear they shot closer to 6% with all those bricks they laid.

We trapped him and they got a layup out of it.
