I would like them not to get completely blown out in the 3rd quarter,

At this point I just want to see Ivey, Duren, and Stewart play well. Bonus points when Hayes or Bey do.

I'm going to guess there's some kind of change in the rotation, probably minutes played shifting, like Casey suggested.

almost 9 hours away... Ugh.. I peaked from bed, and once again, all the snow made me think it was 7ish.. Nope, 5am again. I'm going to smoke a bunch of hash oil because the day is screwed, but it's the perfect time for a Pistons game, something at night/morning to look forward to, unless they play like they have recently.

Yeah, we’ve had an absolutely wild string of third quarters.

Yeah, I thought Key was fine in the limited minutes he saw. No clue who Rhoden is or why we'd need to make this move. Seems a bit odd.

Pistons forward Marvin Bagley III is questionable for tonight’s game against the Clippers with a non-Covid illness, per a team spokesman.

I am shocked at how many fans are out at the LCA. Day after Christmas, and a terrible team. Maybe the fill up of hope hasn't quite worn out yet?

I am officially not worried about Killian anymore. It seems he is on track for normal development, meaning he will have good, and bad games like a normal NBA player.

Super happy I can actually state that now.

Honestly, the accessibility of LCA being at the center of it all has to help some as well instead of Auburn Hills. That and tickets aren't exactly expensive for a decent night out

Burks is just a terrible ball handler. All he really is, is a turret. A really good turret, but that's about it.

Duren is going to lead the league in rebounding, really soon. Could be as early next year. If he plays 33-36mpg, he will absolutely lead the league.

The thing thats different about him, is that he makes himself available offensively, all over the place. I could see him adding around 13-17 ppg along with 13-15rpg as well.

Kid is a beast.

I forgot we had a game, but in my defense we are completely irrelevant.

He could be a Dwight Howard like big down the road depending on how he develops.
