Game 78 Pistons vs Nets 7:00pm. ET
How can Flynn get 50 =18 for 25 and the next game 0 for 12 and only 3 points on free throws.
This is what i call a flash in the pan.Time to start watching Tiger games.

Re: Game 78 Pistons vs Nets 7:00pm. ET
The Fontecchio injury seems strange. This is at least the 10th game he has missed due to a "left great toe contusion" otherwise known as a bruised toe. Surely he isn't purposely sitting as presumably he would want to be out playing to pump up his value before restricted free agency, but maybe him/his agent feel he has shown enough already to get offered a big contract.

I think the agent might want him to risk avoiding injuries in "meaningless games". I can't see him coming at the very end, either. I'd like to re-sign him because he can play both ends pretty well.

Any reason to care about this turd burglar of a game? Is everyone out, or is Cade playing?

Re: Game 78 Pistons vs Nets 7:00pm. ET
I'm hoping next season, the Pistons have some kind of wicked shot-blocking. I watch a ton of Mavs games, and the transformation having two in Lively and Gafford is unreal. Guards can cheat more for steals because they know they have backup, and opposing teams are leary of going inside.
Watching this game, is just a chore.

I’ll tell you what also makes this game unwatchable…..
Brooklyn’s uniforms might be the ugliest in the history of professional sports. My eyes hurt.

This team makes no sense. We're even more shorthanded tonight and on a B2B, but are up 40-23 against a Nets team that actually does have NBA-caliber players.

This is hilarious. Pistons are up 19, and it means nothing, as the overwhelming majority of the players in the floor won't be on the team next year.
I can't help but laugh.

Nowell and Metu are decent bench players, they're better than the garbage that played for us most of the year. They're flawed but they're NBA players.

We are the best team in the league at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

This loss was on our supposed three rotation players - Ivey and Sasser for shooting us out of the game (Ivey getting repeatedly blocked at the rim) and Wiseman with a lot of boneheaded plays. Metu, Nowell and TBJ all looked solid.
Up by 19 and lost by 10.

Thanks team. Get off to a fast start and encourage me to waste 3 hours of my time on Saturday to watch you blow it.
This team is grounded. Need to send it to its room to think about what it has done.

Also would like to point out, that the Pistons took four free throws, and Brooklyn took 33. The game has been polluted by gambling.
That is perhaps the largest gulf I have ever seen.

Yeah I'm not watching this garbage. If Cade was playing sure. I check the boxscore and threads thats about it.
This point of the season you end up getting alot of gleague on gleague games its just not worth watching. Even if we were winning(were not) its hard to take much from the games. Nets were playing their guys but in general alot of crappy basketball out there the last part of the season when your team sucks.
