Any real reason to see this game - OUT.

It's too bad. The rest of the league is picking it up for the playoffs right as the Pistons commit to losing every remaining game on their schedule. Omari mentioned the Pistons aren't sure if Burks or Bojan will play again this year.

It’s probably in the best interest of burks and bojan. It eliminates the risk of unnecessary injury and they get to rest their bodies before the off season. Then they can vacation, spend time with family and start their off season training at 100%. For bojan’s nba career it’s probably a good thing that Croatia didn’t make the World Cup tourney this summer. It’s obvious how Detroit benefits from sitting them as they’re now last in the league (but tied for wins with Houston).

At where we are record wise, I’m fine with the phantom injuries. I’m at the point where I think the 2 two-way contract players should be regularly getting in games. Eugene, for as long as he’s here should see a decent amount of playing time. And if he doesn’t get another contract, the guy that replaces him should get regular playing time.

Hoping Ivey and Livers (and big men) try to carry the load, and hope they get minutes, instead of going to a 10-day.

Pretty cool that Ivey joins Hunter, Dumars and Zeke as the only Pistons rookies to ever get 13+ assists in a game. I'm surprised that Cade and Hill didn't hit that mark as rookies.

Come on Washington, where are you when us Detroit fans need you to beat us? I want that worst record in the league slot.

Casey's rotations are frustrating. Wiseman and Ivey have great first quarters so he waits until just before halftime to bring them back on the floor. Guess Cory needs his minutes (14 already).

New guy on the 10 day contract might be our best defender on the court.

Whoever gives Kuzma more than MLE money is going to regret it.

He's looked solid. And the defensive intensity from Livers compared to Bey is quite noticeable. Games where we've kept a team to around 50 first half points have been few and far between.

Ivey looking good running the show. I wonder how this is going to work next season with Cade back and likely running the show.

And if we draft Scoot?

Come on Casey, do something. Dumb to go through this miserable season then slack off near the end with meaningless wins that can only hurt our draft. If we win, this will be the win that costs us Wemby

Huh? The odds are the exact same for the bottom 3 teams.
