that said really looking to your future, i can't wait for you guys and the pacers to give teams like the bucks and celtics trouble in the playoffs.


What is up with Monty Williams though. Has he screwed up your guys rebuild? I'm not so sure about him as a rebuilding coach.

Once your guys figure things out, you will be good.


Cant understand why Cade Ivey and Twin cant work out.

I hope yall can end up puttin something together, I wanted Thompson with our 6th pick, I like Duren. I think Cade is being asked to do too much, and yall are looking for your alpha still.

Maybe yall can get your alpha in this "down draft". They said the 2022 NBA Draft was a "down draft" and we ended up getting Paolo

Sad for Piston fans. I used to pop in the Pistons board every now and then but haven’t posted over there during this streak… didn’t want to seem like an outsider coming in when the going gets tough.

This game is actually a big step for us because we are finally beating down a team that we should be beating down. We are not playing to the level of our competition and I observe that as growth

They need trades but also need to be careful to not give up on the right talent. Tough position to be in.

We’re missing Fultz, Carter, Suggs and Isaac and still destroying these guys. Roster is so deep.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.

This is a good game to try some different schemes considering the lead we have. Right thing to do with this opportunity

Honestly, it’s because the pistons are that good. Don’t look at this win too deeply.
