1) The season is now officially a complete success. Not that we can’t win this series, but it’s definitely gravy.

2) Homelander, you completely suck. 20 posts when we lose and none when we win. Turn in your fan card. Living off misery is pathetic.


Last time we won a playoff game it was against the KG/Pierce/Allen Celtics and we started Billups/RIP/Prince/Sheed/Dice.

Its a lifetime ago for many. The best part is we are young we haven't had to mortgage the future to get here. We've got an absolute star and he's now backing it up in the playoffs as well. Making the playoffs was 100% the right move even if we can't win this series.

Schroeder trade was the correct move at the deadline.

Harris big contract and bringing in THJ and Beasley were the correct moves.

Probably no bigger move than bringing in JB.

I think he’ll get some more burn at home. It’s hard to get him minutes unless someone besides Cade is hitting shots though. Also, his energy is great, but he’s not a disciplined defender at this point. He might get a steal or he might pick up a couple of quick fouls and put the team in the penalty

Wow. Went out for the game, and man, amazing. Pistons 1-15 are rhe better team, just far less experienced.

WOW. Amazing season.

People get obsessed with how good players are on their best days and for how frequently they disappear.


He is underutilized on offense.


He's probably the 3rd most talented big man on offense in the league and we're lucky they aren't trying to unleash his full skillset on us. I 100% thought he was their biggest wild card they we might really struggle to stop yet thus far he hasn't hurt us too bad... hopefully they don't start going to him more and more.


His talent is undeniable but his heart is questionable.

17 years.

Final two games vs Boston in 2008. First round 4 game sweeps in 2009, 2016, and 2019. And a game one loss in this series. That's 15.

We’ve looked like the better team for 85% of games. I want to see 3 more wins

Guys showed it fighting through adversity, the ticky tack fouls on Ausar and Beef Stew being out. All led by Cade. So impressive.

Enjoy it Piston fans

My opinion of Brunson just fell through the floor after tonights game. I've seen some bad flopping from the usual suspects, but what Brunson did tonight, was just embarrassing.

Even if I'm a teammate I'm mortified by proxy, like Michael Scott.
