Are you a Suns fan? I guess I'm missing how another team's coach's pet would bother you. That'd be like an OKC fan hating Corey Joseph because of Dwayne Casey.

I was just joking in the moment of the game when Shammet was hitting 3’s and getting calls that I didn’t like anything associated with the stench of the Monty Williams era.

I guess the joke didn’t land. :nonono:
Ahhhhhh no, it's ok bro. Lol makes sense now. I didn't see the game, so I didn't have the context of what was happening at the time.

Lol yeah when some scrub killing your team, you hate everything about them for any reason. "Got the nerve to be left-handed, EFF that guy." Lol

If we match up against the Knicks we are going to kick their ass, and Cade will be the best player on the floor.

I don’t know if we will kick their ass but Cade will certainly be the best player on the floor.

How does Killian Hayes make you feel? :lol:

Sad more than anything else.
I'll always wonder if Hayes rough start broke his confidence at this level. He was so far from ready to be in an NBA rotation, let alone start.

Agreed. I probably wouldn’t have been as annoyed with the unwarranted Killian Hayes optimism had he not been forced into a significant role.

He would have definitely benefited from G-league reps for a confidence boost.

I wonder if the mods can have “Killian Hayes” and “Monty Williams” censored :curse: like other unpleasant words :lol:

Yup, 100% should have started out as a low MPG bench backup for Rose and learned from him and even that would have been us gifting him a role but making him a day 1 starter and then continuing to start him to detriment of the team for four years was just absolutely insane.

Well, the actual playoffs are right around the corner. The Pistons board isn't anywhere near as big as it used to be, but I've been posting with some of you for decades(!) now.

Gonna sit back, relax, and enjoy the games. Win or lose, this season has been amazing, and its been a pleasure having discussions here. Sometimes heated, but still, very few places you can go, and talk Pistons.

Also, reddit sucks.
