Lol at Yabusele jumping on Ron Holland’s pump fake. Ron Holland is a horrible shooter

Tobias with 0 points. Does he think this is a playoff elimination game or something?

*edit* and he gets a point. Guess someone told him it was November

Regarding McCain playing more of a distributor

Honestly, that’s the right way to pace it— get your teammates involved, especially since they’re scoring well. Conserve your energy then capitalize later when the defense shifts its focus to them and eases up on you or when your teammates starts struggling to score.

I expect him to step up and score in the second half, which is typically when teams hit the gas pedal and leave us in the dust.

except they weren't making shots during that run and thats not really his game if he isn't looking to score

just feels like the same play like Rondo **** Doc tried to pull with Maxey

play your guys to their strengths not what your "system" wants imo

It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.

the idea of KJ Martin is the exact 4 we need

just hit corner threes, be athletic to run with Maxey and catch oops, not die on defense and get in the way on the boards

Yup! Because he’s a lob threat and way better as a rim protector.

Pistons playing this bad on defense is making me mad.

Arsenal wrote:I'm assuming Nurse wants to spread the gravity and ballhandling now that PG is back in the lineup, hence McCain to the bench, especially with our other PGs (Lowry & Jackson) out. As long as he still gets 35 mins I'm fine w/it. Let McCain run the team as the lead guard when Maxey sits.


A brilliant plan by Nurse; I don't know why Mazzula or Kerr didn't deploy that strategy when they had Durant/Klay/Curry or Tatum/Brown/White/Holiday.

Somebody has to write an email about how Pistons is clearly tanking as shown with how they played in this quarter and send it to Adam Silver

He shouldn’t play unless he can average 25ppg.

He now plays like a hybrid of Nicolas Batum and Kyle Anderson.
