Pistons-Pacers #2 (7pm)

[Snakebites]

We weren’t going to lose every game for the rest of the year.

I'm fine as long as Duren get's his 24 MPG to finish out this season. Playing Wiseman like 30 and Duren 18 would certainly be sad for the kid who if anything should be getting the most minutes of his young career now we're in full blown tank mode.

That said, you don't make a move for Wiseman and play him as a 16 MPG bench player either. About splitting give or take a minute or two is probably where you want to be unless one is in foul trouble or one is having a monster night.

The Pacers biggest “bigs” tonight were some 6’9” combo forwards. Wiseman and Duren ate.

I am very happy with Wiseman offensively. He has a really slick post game for as young as he is. Super long arms, and can shoot over anyone.

Needs a ton of work defensively, but I chalk that up to lack of playing time.

This win would have felt a lot better if Indy wasn't sitting so many players. Kind of felt like they gave one to us which was surprising because they are still just a game out of the play-ins.

Rockets over Celtics! Great Race to the bottom still on!

[Uncle Mxy]

When I was actively watching the game, the Pacers would narrow the score. When I wasn't, we would play well.
Hopefully, I'm not developing a new lame superpower.

Even at the end, where Killingme Hayes dribbled out with >24 seconds on the clock, technically turning over the ball, I was surprised the Pacers didn't come back for a score.

I hate Weaver so much. Why the **** is Wiseman starting over Duren. What a **** (Please Use More Appropriate Word) GM we got and people will blame Casey for that.

Duren, the rookie, has about the same career minutes as Wiseman. Season is basically over and it’s time to get some less experienced players more time on the floor.

I thought you’d be more focused on Boheims Pistons fantasy camp experience.

Only one of them have a future as starter in the league. We should be playing him 30+ minutes and starting him.

Gotta love late season garbage games.

Only Killian and Wiseman are negative +/- right now...

Didn't watch the game, but Killian was -11 in a game that Detroit won by 20 points?

Detroit: -11 in 29 minutes with Hayes
Detroit: +31 in 19 minutes without Hayes

That type of impact is pretty hard to accomplish. Take a bow, Killian

If we're #1 in FT's attempted, it still could mean we're not getting calls, and could shoot another handful.

Your hatred for Wiseman is illogical. He is clearly a better offensive player than Duren and only slightly worse defensively.
