PG - this is the opposite of fun

you can't lose a game where the pistons shoot shoot under 28% from 3 on the road....you can't loose a game like that.

He's quite frankly the worse 6th Man this team has ever fielded out there in their playoff history. I'm not even trying to be funny. Can't think of a single team from 90's, 2000's, and Melo era that had a worse 6th Man.

You should both knock it off.

Deuce just isn’t built for the playoffs. Delon needs to play over him.

JB really didn’t have it tonight. His ankle might be worse than he’s letting on.

Mikal needs to bulk up and lift weights this offseason. He’s one of the weaker players in the league. Can’t hold his ground offensively or defensively.

Thibs, JB, and Deuce said hold my beer.

Cam Payne saved us and we got the comeback and call in game 4

the fact we can't separate ourselves in any of the games in this series with there 2nd best player nowhere near our 4th best player is a problem.

It’s bad enough that Duece has no handle or is awful at finishing around the basket, but now he can’t even shoot.

Like I honestly don’t want to see him out there. Put in Delon instead.

Also, I am so sick of bitching about Thibs. He just malfunctions when it matters most. It’s emotionally draining see just how many games he’s cost this team.

Red Vines · Post #129 » by **Red Vines** » Wed Apr 30, 2025 2:42 am

We all know JB has been playing hurt, so why does Thibs play him like he's not? He plays all of the 1st quarter for what? To have that 1 point lead? It's just inevitable it will backfire later on.

no

We've needed 3 different 4th quarter comebacks against them. So, yes.

If you went through and checked the quarters I'm sure they've won more quarters than us, we just beat them in the 4th because of experience, except tonight.

Jesus Christ, how many backdoors did Thompson have tonight? I counted 4.

This is what everyone meant when they said he was soft.

Well we've won more games so hows the math mathing.

He is an off-ball 3 and D player. I have no idea why he handles the ball as much as he does. The offense would fall apart when Deuce played without Brunson last year.

Literally, I'm done with him. Get rid of him. That contract looks like **** when he's not even performing.

We have the talent to have such an amazing offense. But it’s just ugly with SMB in crunch time
