Pistons-Sixers (7pm)

[zeebneeb]

Guys, it makes it a lot harder to deal with trolls when I see Pistons users already going after them.

Please don’t feed the trolls- it’s what they want and you don’t want to get dragged into it.

Eh, everyone likes a good scuffle now and then. Getting punched in the face(verbally or physically)on occasion is good for the soul.

I’m really curious what Bey will look like in his prime. His learning how to go inside leaves him playing like a short Greg Monroe. It’s going to affect his offers next year if he doesn’t start playing to his strengths next season

I certainly hope, if he’s still in Detroit, that it affects his court time if he can’t play to his strengths. He’s already playing off the bench in favor of Bojan and Stew. If Weaver doesn’t deal BB and we don’t pick top 2, there’s a very good chance we take a talented forward in the 3-6 range.

He’s just not good on either end, plain and simple. Devolve your game, spot up, lose some muscle weight, work on hip flexibility, study a lot of tape. There’s not at lot of playing time for a guy that is a weak defender and inefficient volume scorer … if we’re trying to win. That has to happen eventually, right? Right?

2 of them if you must know

So you’re a 60+ year old troll? Yikes, dude.

I’m 52 and got over that kinda nonsense about five years after I joined this forum (about age 40). And frankly, it embarrasses me to remember I acted like that at that age.

Not really much good to say about this one; sooo many shots were in and out.

But BadMofoPimp was in town so he and I spent the game at Twin Peaks downing wings, beers and shots of Jameson.

I'll take the troll's side if he is saying that Philly has a small chance to win a title this year (5-10%) and the team board is saying they have no chance.

Bey has a shot selection problem. He needs to let the offense come to him. But, being cast in the wrong role isn't on him. Let's not forget that we had and still have him playing PF. That's why he put on some pounds. Who's our PF off the bench otherwise? Why did we think it was a good idea to bulk up someone with poor defense at SF?

Bey wasn't why we lost. This was a scheduling loss and the coaching staff played to that expectation.

If I were with you, I'd have done Bushmills. I haven't been to the new TP in Auburn Hills yet -- wish it were around when the Pistons were at the Palace.

No prob. Its just laughable that some of yall think Embiid needs to flop against your stout big men. Sixers have been called for 10 fouls while pistons 4...but Embiid is the flopper lol.

Bringing up flopping leads to a false dichotomy. Embiid does not have to flop to be a sack of ****.

Personally, I like Embiid as a foil. His bully game and smack talk should be overcome. He's fragile enough where he's unlikely to lead anyone to a title, and we need to send him on his ass every time we can.

(My first Pistons game. Yeah, we won a title that year, too)

And the last words any fan of a rebuilding team has to say is, "I hope our rebuild doesn't end up being like the 76ers situation, lol. Really, what else needs to be said? Orlando fans, our fans, OKC, Houston, all fans of those teams can rightfully say, "I hope our rebuild doesn't end up like the 76ers rebuild".

I thought they had done a pretty good job of asset collection until the NBA forced out Sam Hinkie and installed Bryan Colangelo. That really screwed them over, to the point they probably won't get a title out of "The Process."

Yeah, normally I go to the Auburn Hills one now that it’s there, but the Livonia one was closer to where BMP is staying (and barely any further for me than Auburn Hills) so we met up at that one. It was a good time but unfortunately the D team was working last night. Definitely nowhere near the level of scenery you’d usually get.

Not one of the better views game nor Livonia Twin Peaks . . .
