I don't like how this one feels. Bam & Hero being Piston killers like usual.

2nd Funniest Pistons moment of the season

Dennis yells at Robinson's flop "GET UP, MAN!" while using funny and angry body language.

Schroder fails the eye test for me. I hate his shot selection and it feels like he's not doing anything. But somehow he has OKish stats. *shrug* Feels very... Reggie Jackson to me. The drop-off from Cade to Sasser was just soooo great that even a semi-competent PG looks decent. Definitely not as attached to him as most of the board.

I just don't like when he shoots 3's - it looks like he's throwing up a 500 lb brick.

But I want to re-sign him. I think he does a lot of other things well.

We have been able to rest Cade a bit more and in fact keep all our starters minutes relatively low because of how strong our bench has become. Fresher legs means we can keep running at them and applying pressure defensively through all 4 quarters.

I don't know about their injury situation during the losing streak but I have no idea how this Miami team lost 8 in a row, they still have plenty of good players that can win games without Butler.

The defensive play from Cade in transition was insane. And he saved the **** ball. :o :bowdown:

Guys playing hard but some very poor decisions on the offensive end down the stretch

It feels like Cade has had a pretty bad game, yet has a triple-double.

I hate when it comes down to this, but Pistons gotta win this one.

It hasn't been a 4th quarter for him on the offensive end, that's for sure.

Didn't give up the 3 or a 3pt play. This is OK. Not great... but OK.

Dumb coaching to not have Stewart out for that last defensive possession
