They can't even fire him. Didn't they just sign him to the biggest contract in NBA coach history?

I'm glad they won but this is absolutely ass of shame Worthy. But I'm not surprised I said in the game thread they'd either win by 25 or 5.

Just pathetic shooting overall and not taking this team seriously

Tatum is embarrassing. White should start every single late game possession with the ball in his hands. Half on Joe cuz he enables it. Half on Tatum.

Despite their disgraceful record, the Pistons have nice building blocks in Cunningham, Duren and Ivey.

Still got 31 points and 10 assists.

Also made 2 big plays in OT to put the game away.

1. The assist to White for the 3.
2. Outlet pass to KP for the dunk.

The guy still made winning plays on a bad shooting night.

Horford is valuable against Embiid and Giannis but tonight he looked cooked a la last year's ECF. Can't guard space at all or jump to rebound. I think we need to go hard after Drummond.

Cade might be the worst and the laziest defender I've ever seen. Duren is legit.

On like 33% shooting. Today was the first day I thought he made pretty bad decisions with the ball. Not Jaylen-bad but still surprisingly bad decisions.

DWhite and KP dragged us over the finish line

JT 31 pts but on 31 shots, 2/11 on 3s SMH

Poor Al struggled, double big line up easy to put in rotation which impacts our rebounding

Just a matter of time when JT returns to franchise player mode.

That was….well that was a basketball game. KP for the cigar but honestly nobody really deserves it.

He made up for it with those 2 crucial plays in OT.

He could have forced the shot, but found an open White for 3.

And he could have held on to the ball instead of throwing it to KP for the dunk.

It's a shame I have no confidence whatsoever in Tatum hitting a game winning shot. He just ain't that guy.
